You don’t have to defend your position. Others can pressure you all they like, but they can’t oust you if you won’t budge.
You always said someone would be back and now they are. But are they sorry? Hold off on the happy reunion until you’re completely convinced.
You’d rather be rid of the dead wood, but tossing it now would be like picking at a scar before it’s fully healed. Let it be.
You have to weigh what you want versus what you truly deserve. An impartial judgment of your recent performance will be the deciding factor.
Enter a negotiation without expectations and you could emerge with more than you anticipated. Your instinctual feeling for how things will turn out is spot on.
Be open to others’ input, but take your time making up your mind. Ideas that stimulate your thought process are more important than the advice.
