To Jump or Not To Jump

If you find yourself in the predicament (oh - poor you) of deciding which job to take, follow your values I say. Do you value stuff (admit it! most of you do!) or do you value your sanity (working with nice people, challenging environment, chocolate)?

And don't be surprised if your values change from time to time or the order gets all wonky. I used to value money in the bank, now I value money in paying off loans...okay okay, so those aren't "values". I value financial stability and how I address "stability" changes from situation to situation.

Current scheme is to use all money to pay off loans and I've set goals and rewards along the way to keep myself (and family) motivated including a new home-cooked meal every week (or month as it happens) instead of going out.

I find that wine and friends are a good start to finding out what's important in life.
