Question: "Guru's Guru, I’ve been feeling really stuck in my career lately. I’m not sure whether to stay at my current job or pursue a completely different path. What should I do?"
Guru's Guru's authentic answer (not edited by politically correct ChatGPT this time):
Look very carefully at what is having you "feeling really stuck." Likely it's financially, and the reality of monetary needs, or personally, based on what you think others expect of you. Were I to say, "Follow your heart;" while that sounds nice, it wouldn't really be helpful if you are not first comfortable with your finances and personal relationships.
So let's look at what it really means when we say, "I feel really stuck." It's saying that you are a victim of circumstances that you perceive to be out of your control. And while that might seem to be true for you, consider looking at it from the perspective of personal responsibility, and more, opportunity.
Look for what you can do to add joy to those around you in your workplace and focus on that. If you find yourself complaining to others about your situation, stop that, and again, turn your focus to helping and supporting those around you who might also 'feel stuck.' If negative emotions pop up, notice them; become good at catching them in yourself, and then laugh, knowing that 'you' are NOT those emotions but rather that you are simply HAVING those emotions. That will allow you to 'step back' so to speak, and focus on the joy that you can bring others, thereby bringing joy to yourself too.
Now, if you have the means to 'pursue a completely different path' and if you can do so with joy and trust in yourself, then do that and go ahead without reservations and while taking full responsibility for your action.
To summarize: Drop the notion of 'being stuck,' as that is 'victim mentality and it does not serve you well. I know that you can do that!!
I hope that others will give their two sats worth of an answer too!!
