Life is short.  A stable life is illusionary.  Change is the only constant.

When you let others have more control over your life than you do, you leave yourself exposed.  In careers, there’s no security.  No one cares about your future, about your success.  It’s up to you to gain control.

Bosses got to be boss by caring about themselves more than those they worked with.  Colleagues care more about their status than yours.

No matter where you are in your life—in your career—it is important to have options.  Explore options whenever circumstances warrant.

It’s your life to control.
