Honor a pledge – even if it goes against every fiber of your being. What you lose now will come back later as a moral victory.
Reaching for an opportunity could jeopardize what you have. Review the pros and cons one more time.
Try to get beyond the day-to-day so you can take a bird’s eye view of the situation. You’ll see that holding on costs more than letting go.
Make sure your facts are in order before grilling others on theirs. Nothing takes the air out of an argument faster than faulty assumptions.
Don’t sit down at the bargaining table with a list of demands. Put the accent on achievements. The other side will happily reward you.
You came close to severing ties many times, but a certain someone isn’t going anywhere. Accept that s/he’s a permanent fixture.
