Recognizing When to Leave a Job

Knowing when it's time to leave a job is crucial for career growth and personal well-being. Common indicators include feelings of dread about the workday and a lack of energy, which may signal that a position has become untenable. Engaging in 'energy audits' can help individuals evaluate their work's impact on their motivation, distinguishing between tasks that energize them versus those that drain them. It's advised to be proactive in exploring new opportunities and having conversations with recruiters, as this can create a pathway towards a fresh start without burning bridges.
