At one point of time in their career, everyone will be in a dilemma whether to continue with the same job or to jump to a better one if provided with the opportunity.
But the real problem comes at the point of decision making. While most people fancy their chances of getting a better paid job with more professional growth, at times they realise that the job which is offered to them may not satisfy their needs.
An article in marcandangel.com says that people react in a positive manner whenever an opportunity is provided but then when the reality of the job hits them they have to adjust their mindset.
That is people start to think whether they have to take up that job leaving the current one. 'Yeah, maybe they should, and maybe they shouldn’t. Nothing is certain, and the fear of change is completely natural. However, surrendering to this fear and hesitation without an accurate evaluation of the options can lead to unfortunate personal growth stagnation,' the article mentions.
Whatever the decision may be of the individual, it should be evaluated first before jumping to the conclusion straight away. Always trust your instinct as it is almost certainly correct. One can never be sure of what lies ahead and if your assessment says that you will be better with the new job, then just go with it, but make a decision that you won't regret later.
