I think it's not only the "unknown", but also making the change puts the responsibility for your happiness in your own hands. It's so much easier to blame everyone and everything else for our misery. Making it our own responsibility is a lot scarier. Work is going well for me also. New President seems very good. I hope some changes are made.

It's so much easier to be miserable and maintain business as usual - a decision which sadly accounts for all of the dysfunctional organizations we know. Once you commit to change - the sense of freedom can't be adequately described - but it's intoxicating! I can honestly say that I've met every new change in my career with enthusiasm and 100% loyalty and buy-in. But, no matter how committed you may be, when it becomes evident your employer doesn't share the same value set - it may be heart-breaking but it's clearly time to make a break. If you don't it will suck the life out of you. [P.S. Still LOVE, LOVE, LOVIN' my job!!!] /cb Clearly making the tough change is worse because it’s filled with the unknown.
