Is it time to move on?

If you've ever asked yourself this question about a relationship, a job, a career, or any other life transition - you are not alone. This is one of the most common questions I get asked by clients and it's often one of the first questions that come up, even before clients are working with me. I've asked myself this too and I actually believe it's a very healthy question to ask yourself often.

This has been coming up a lot with the clients I'm working with and I think if people are being honest, they hope I'll give them an answer or have a secret formula for answering this question. But the fact is, I'm not going to answer this question for you - you have this answer this question for yourself.

Here are some additional questions to help you discern how you might answer the question, "is it time to move on?"

  1. Are my needs being met consistently?

  2. Is the other person willing to change and showing effort? (If you're exploring a life transition you might phrase this question, "Can things change if I stay in this place and what evidence is there?")

  3. What's the main reason I haven't moved on yet?


Your answers to these questions is not going to give you an immediate answer to the main question but it will help you reflect and explore what is right for you.
