Justify What You Know
The choice to walk away is a choice that has been weighed heavily.
Most people think long and hard before they finally come to a decision they knew the answer to all along.
It is in your thoughts you attempt to talk yourself out of your decision.
You must weigh all options such as, can I afford it, will I lose my identity, will this really help, and finally what does this say about me?
All these questions help you justify what you know you have to do to preserve your mental health.
Deep down inside if you truly listen, you will learn for you to move forward with your life, you must actively choose to walk away.
More importantly, you must accept this as part of your journey.
