So You’re Getting Married…Ambitious Much?

Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest. (Ecclesiastes 9:10)

An ambitious woman will end up resenting her partner if he lacks determination. You may have a partner that is very caring and loves you whole heartedly, but this will not make up for his lack of drive. If you’re a person that is always striving to do better, whether it’s in your career or personal life, you’ll always feel like you’re being held back if your partner is content with a mediocre life. Following are a few questions you will want to ask during your courtship:

·        Are you pursuing your dream career? If not, why?
·        How many jobs have you had? How long did you stay on those jobs?
·        Why did you quit your last job?
·        Have you ever been fired? Why were you fired?
·        What does your career entail?
·        What is your typical work day like?
·        What is the highest level of education you have obtained?
·        Do you often take courses (degree or non-degree) that will help you advance in your career or profession?
·        Has the level of education ever been a factor in a break-up?
·        What are your plans for retirement?


Remember ladies; what makes you happy, may not be true for the next person. And you cannot judge or change a person’s beliefs on what makes them happy. You need to accept them for who they are or move on. Secondly, do not allow your career ambition to be a priority over your marriage (will explain further in another blog posting).


XOXO,


Jay
