“Sometimes walking away has nothing to do with weakness, and everything to do with strength. We walk away not because we want others to realise our worth and value, but because we finally realise our own.” ~ Robert Tew
You know the old saying I am sure. The definition of madness (some actually say stupidity) is to do the same thing over and over, and yet keep expecting a different result.
Walking away is not an admission of defeat. Walking away is about recognising our own boundaries, our own limits, and our own needs.
So how do you know if it’s time to walk away? (And I’m not just talking relationships – I’m talking jobs, business deals, addictions, habits, workloads, friendships, situations… )
Look for these signs, and ask yourself honestly if any of these describe you:
If it’s just not adding up, no matter which way you crunch the numbers…
Any of these things are serious cause for consideration.
Life is short. For you. For them. If it’s not working, and you’ve done all you can do, or all you’re willing to do, walk away. Do it in your own time – there’s no need to make life harder for yourself. But do it. Do it because if you don’t value yourself, no-one else will.
