Lesson 4: Comfort Dangerous Zone

Comfort Zone Not Safe Zone: Get Up! Before Being Trapped

We have said many times that the world is unstable...

Today, major banks can also let 45-year-old employees leave their jobs despite the temptation of packaging.

In the old days, I only looked at doing "dear work" in a proud organization and saw the growth path, never even paying attention.

Until the Professor at Georgetown reminded me: "Don't get stuck at the stock exchange; go out for a variety of experiences," that warning was the most true.

Comfort Zone is everywhere...And it's an illusion.

Comfort hides in every circle.

• Law Firm → Lawyers dare not move to In-house for fear of boring. Fear of losing opportunity.

• Compliance → Fear of having to be legally responsible

What I have to redeem is:

• 7 years and 310 days on the stock exchange to be issued

• 5 years of Law Firm until unhealthy due to having to take care of a terminally ill father to change

• When the old company closed worldwide → had to find a new job at the age of 40, which wasn't even fun.

The Most Painful Lesson: People who stay in the Comfort Zone for a long time often hurt the hardest when it comes to changing, why?

🥲 you haven't changed jobs in twenty years. The company is afraid that you won't adapt. Even if you don't have a manager or a supervisor younger than you, they want to take younger people.

🥲 if you have a "high salary base," it may become a trap, making it even harder for you to find a new job in the market. I also survived because I accepted the position of Manager / Head and because I had enough variety of experience.

❓ 5 questions to answer yourself today

Stop evaluating yourself and answer these questions honestly:

1. Does the organization still give you the opportunity to make progress? (Or are you just "stuck" in a position?)

2. Is the job you do "desirable" in the real market?

3. Do you have any rare specialized skills? (such as Compliance, IT that still find a job even at the age of 50 +)

4. You are a "love child," right? But remember: Blue always changes color.

5. Do you have enough reserves? Because long hemp line = job selection power

🙋‍♀️ conclusion.

Comfort Zone is not a Safe Zone.

It's a thin glass that breaks in the blink of an eye. Don't fool yourself, "It didn't happen to me," because if you don't retire, it can happen at any time.

⁉️ the question left here is: Do you already have the weapons to break through the world of AI and non-stop change today?
