Painting the Outhouse Does not Take the Stink Away

So many times, people feel that a job change will solve all of their issues. It is always someone else, if you’d ask them. Either their boss is a pain in the neck; their pay is not good enough; there is not enough opportunity; they are not appreciated as they expect; and more.

Truth be told, if we would take the time to invest in ourselves, magically, our environment would seem to get better. Get a hair cut and . . . SHA-ZAM, you instantly feel better. Get a new suit or professional clothing, and the same result happens. Read books on personal development and leadership, and begin to change your thoughts from ” I’m a victim” to “I NEED TO CHANGE”.

Once the victim mentality diminishes and the new self emerges, everyone should be willing to fire themselves (figuratively speaking) and re-hire the more productive, better attitude, better dressed self. Unfortunately for most, a job change will still produce the same result until they do more than just paint the outhouse.
