Why You Need to Stop Climbing the Corporate Ladde
Do you want to know how to climb the corporate ladder and find success? Why not try not climbing it? What is the difference between the corporate ladder and the corporate lattice and which is for you? Both lattices and ladders exist within companies themselves and within your own career as a larger whole. No matter which path you select, you need to be your own best advocate. You will need to be the one making sure that your goals are being met and that you’re making room for the possibility that plans can and will most likely change.

Your Job is Too Much of A Safe Place
Are you bored at work? Has it been a long time since you’ve actually been challenged on the job? There’s a reason. Sometimes you can be too comfy.
I'm not actually talking snuggies, yoga pants and comfy sox. Those things are awesome. I'm talking about feeling totally, yes too, comfortable in your career.
The 'devil you know' comfort is born out of fear. You stay where you are, doing what you're doing, because of fear of the unknown. Where you are might be crappy - but at least you know what kind of crap to expect... right?
Unless there's something on your horizon that gives your stomach the jitters and freaks you out just a bit... something that pushes you out of your comfort zone... you will always be *exactly* right where you are. That's fine... right?
There is a time and space that you get to where you know it’s time to leave your job but you also know that it's a safe place and the devil you know is better than whatever freaky, hypothetical, scaries are out there in the world.
