I agree with TwoLives, if you take the new position and hate it than start looking for a new job that you feel more passionate about...but if you end up loving the job and the new location you'll thank yourself for taking that leap of faith into the unknown.

I'll probably over analyze it work a week until I drive myself crazy.<br /><br />It's very hard to make a move when I am in a very comfortable situation now. I just know that I need to get past my comfort and make the move.<br /><br />Finding another job is not easy, and explaining a move after one year or less is tricky. I really want whatever decision I make to be the right one.RBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17761591668246881356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804497757570739111.post-74471843029377265752014-12-01T20:04:08.689-05:002014-12-01T20:04:08.689-05:00Listening to your gut, or your guy?

Sleep on it. Run on it. Let the right answer percolate up from inside you. Whether you accept or not, your well-considered decision will be the right one.<br /><br />Also, I don't think you should fear a bad decision. The worst-case scenario is that you end up in a job and in a location that you hate. What's the solution? Another job search. Yes, that would be a pain, but chances are you'd get another raise out of it AND you'd have a better idea of what the right job and location would be. So the worst case is a few months of pain - totally worth it, because you'll end up in an even more satisfying situation after job search #2. Overall, the downsides of regretting a decision are very limited.TwoLiveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05801244463128618355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3804497757570739111.post-32658409858356205122014-11-30T11:12:33.817-05:002014-11-30T11:12:33.817-05:00Change is always a difficult thing to process.

The important thing is for you to be happy. Roberthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08227962713037456290noreply@blogger.com
