The Morning Mindset w/Kisha Hicks

On a pretty regular basis, I have the pleasure of speaking to several women in Human Resources and other industries, as we are talking many of them have the chief complaint of feeling as though: -They are not working up to their potential -They are not growing and learning at the rate that they want -They don't feel challenged in their role Most often, this is because many of them have settled into these spaces. And even more often they have settled out fear. In this episode of The Morning Mindset with Kisha Hicks, we are going to discuss Why Settling for a Job that You Don't Love is the Absolute Worst Career Decision You Can Make.

Waiting until the first of the new year to move your HR career forward is wrong and here is why... I know that it's the beginning of the holidays, and many are starting to slow it down. I know that you have been working hard this year, you may even be in a state of burnout, and that taking this time with your family and friends will give you some time to rest, rejuvenate and bring the happiness back into your life. So here is my challenge for you, you can keep the belief that you should hold out and wait out until the beginning of the new year, and continue to feel that hopeless, stress, and continue to work hard while others are being promoted and elevate around you, or you can... Start NOW and create true growth, joy, and confidence by understanding who you are, start understanding your purpose, you can start defining and elevating yourself, you can start decreasing your fears.

What in the world are you going to do when you actually do it? The decision to quit your job is by far not an easy one but, it's not one that you can't make.
