Years ago, I was offered a very enticing package by a well-known company.
☑️ Big role
☑️ Attractive salary
☑️ Amazing benefits for me and my family
☑️ Big bonuses every year
Definitely a HUGE increase from my income back then. 😲
To many, it’s a no-brainer. But I took my time to weigh the pros and cons of accepting the offer.
The company was big and popular in the region, a leader in many ways. But the working environment in the department I would join was toxic. Work-life balance was nonexistent at all.
If I accepted the offer, yes I might have made extra money, but at the expense of my mental health.
So after praying for guidance to help me make the right decision, I declined the offer, even if that income would’ve been very substantial for us.
I cannot trade my peace of mind for money.
No amount of money could make up for the stress and unhappiness I would face daily.
