THE RUBBER BAND MODEL

Hello friends,
I am sharing insights from one book I have been reading.
You can read the latest here.

Picture this: You're in a tug-of-war between two giant rubber bands. One band is pulling you towards a shiny new opportunity, while the other is firmly anchoring you to your comfy, familiar spot. This is the heart of the Rubber Band Model – a super handy tool for those tricky 'should I stay or should I go' dilemmas.

Imagine you're thinking about a career change. Ask yourself: What exciting prospects are tugging at you, luring you towards this new career? Maybe it's the promise of adventure, more money, or the allure of chasing your dream job. Now, peek at the other band: What's holding you back? Is it the comfort of your current job, the fear of the unknown, or the love for those amazing office snacks?

This model shines when you're caught between changing and staying put. For example, if you're living in Minnesota and wondering whether to stay cozy among the lakes or pack up for a new adventure. But if you're choosing between sunbathing in Florida or surfing in California, you might want to check out other excellent tools from the book. The Rubber Band Model is about understanding the push and pull in life's big decisions!

Thanks for reading!
