Transcript:

There is a great book called Radical Careering that I love by Sally Hogshead — great book! Radical Careering and one of the things — it is more of a picture book almost. It’s like pithy quotes and stuff and one of them says, “Being in crappy job is not your fault. Staying in a crappy job is your fault.” (inaudible) That’s right. Crappy Anything. Staying in that, when you know better, is your fault and you need to see it that way. Please, don’t ask for excuses from others, because often times they won’t occur and you’re just sitting there going “Do da doo, not my problem. I’m unhappy but it’s not my problem because no one gave me an excuse.” No! You’re unhappy because you have haven’t made a decision. Make the decision.
