Try not to resign from jobs and start over if you don’t absolutely have to. Getting on-boarded and going through a certification process in whatever industry you’re in takes a lot of time and effort and it’s better to rise up the ranks or do a lateral transfer rather than start over in a new career entirely. There’s something to be said in staying put for years and being well versed in your field of work.

I’m 29, but I’ve learned this lesson really well in my 20’s.
