As you think about what you want to do next, think about what you like about your current situation, not just what you want to change. You could spend so much effort focusing on what you want to change that you could lose sight of the things you like.

There has to be a reason you chose your current job in the first place. Maybe it was the money, the routine, the people, etc.

As you transition into your next job you want to keep the things you like about your current situation and change the things you don't.
