I’ve had three great offers this week.
Yeah, I’ve been damn fortunate.
Yet…
I turned down all three.
Why?
Because these great offers
don’t tie into how I envision my future.
I know they will lead to other opportunities
but these other opportunities
will take me even further from my goals.
The opportunities don’t disappear.
They will go to someone else
who will value them more.
It is tough letting them go.
It means standing firm
on what I see as my future.
Yet my dreams will never come true
if I’m chasing someone else’s.
