They are either underemployed, not happy with their current position or not fairly compensated for their skill and/or function set. If so many people are misemployed, why do they stay in their current situation? Why do they not takerepparttar 142077 necessary steps to move into something that will be fulfilling and something they can look forward to doing every day - a situation they can truly be proud of?

The following are some ofrepparttar 142078 most common reasons: •Complacency •Fear ofrepparttar 142079 unknown •Fear of change •Not knowing what their options are •Don’t want to give uprepparttar 142080 familiar, no matter how uncomfortablerepparttar 142081 familiar is •Staying within their comfort zone •No time to search for something new •They just don’t know how to make a change •Fear of failure •Fear of success (they may actually get what they dreamed of) •They fearrepparttar 142082 job search is more frustrating than their current unsatisfactory job •Not knowing where to begin

How often have we heard others give these reasons for not moving out of an unpleasant situation? How often have we said this to ourselves if we are actually misemployed? Imagine looking back over your life and saying, “I wish I would have done it differently.”

Things like not making a change when we knew a change was in order, or not takingrepparttar 142084 appropriate steps to move into a situation that would lend itself to a more fulfilling life both personally and professionally.
