Why you make bad decisions

This is a new style of video for me and I apologise for all the unnecessary mic sounds.
Lists of values.
There are lots of these you can find by just searching online. But a suggestion might be:

Thank you for the video. I ordered the Midnight Library. I’m in a job that gives me anxiety but can’t leave until I find another one. One of the reasons I want to leave is because the manager doesn’t share my values. It’s funny, I was thinking about that and then saw your video. In the past I would have whined and complained about the manager but now I learned the best thing to do is leave. I have no reason to fight an institution.

"I never lose. I winn or I learn." Thank you for that....Mandela was a wise man.❤

Okay the content of the video is great, but can we talk about the visuals?? This background! This lighting! Your hair, makeup and this top! You look gorgeous! Love it

[@Emmaanders]

Thank you so much!! Making some big changes- I really appreciate it xx

[@user-hw1ny4qc4z]

I quit the NHS after 34 years, I truly identify with your values position and how the NHS has changed. Great video xx

[@sanachka225]

It is absolutely true that companies will not hire you if you are overqualified. Their goal is to fill the position with the person who is bright enough to do the job and will be content to stay in the job for an extended period. If the person they hire is overqualified then it will be a poor fit and the company will need to fill the position again in short order. You either need to work for free as an intern or get a trainee position that is intended to move you up through the ranks fairly quickly. I'd love to know what industry you wanted to break into! It is also true that bringing knowledge and skills from a different sector and applying your skills to a new sector can bring synergy to the new job with exciting results. Best of luck with your new ventures.🎉

Thanks for this video Emma I needed it. I quit my job in September after 12 years in my company as nursery nurse. Childcare in the UK at the moment is in a bit of a mess I think and I was so burnt out. After 6 months of me just being at home and my husband supporting us both I just couldn’t do it anymore I thought I’m only 36 I want a job. I applied for some other nurseries and I really messed up the last interview I went for at the setting I really wanted but they took a chance on me. I swore I’d never go back into childcare but it’s all I’ve known from leaving school and I know I’m good even tho it’s very low paid for how stressful it can be sometimes. This new place seems like I would be happy and so I thought I’m going to just give it my all as I have nothing to lose anymore ❤️

[@Emmaanders]

Absolutely! I did exactly the same thing in medicine- went back again as it was all I’d known- so totally get it. And you never know it might work out- but if it doesn’t at least you’ll know you’ve tried. It’s win win xx

Best. Video. Ever. Watching you grow is such a joy. And I really needed to hear what you discuss in this video (read: midlife crisis territory)

[@bini5576]

Dear Emma, what a refreshing video with lots of food for thought. Thank you! ☺️

[@Emmaanders]

Thanks x

[@cjmommy3638]

This is so beautiful and liberating. Love your channel, Emma!

[@damsden2582]

I honestly think this is the best video you have posted. I love your channel and have watched for years enjoying all of your content. This is above and beyond as it is so helpful to so many. Thank you Emma. 😊

[@Emmaanders]

Thank you so much!

[@nmernst]

Wonderful video thanks for sharing. I'd say you were a teacher or councilor in another life ☺️.

[@BrummyGirl37c]

Fantastic video, love the topic and right on time. Thank you

[@8Agnew]

Great video! When you mentioned at the end that the coach asked your husband what did he want to do when he was a child...I've been fortunate enough to do as an adult a lot of what I wanted to do as a child. It didn't really hit me, though, until many, many years later that I'd done many of those things. As a kid it was all play and no one took it seriously. I still have to remind myself to follow my intuition, because it is so easy to fall back on other people's opinions.

[@Emmaanders]

WOW! That shows how much personal strength you have. So few people can do that. I have nothing but respect and admiration for that. But yes- as you say- it's always a challenge- but it speaks volumes that you have the insight and resilience to follow through xx

[@8Agnew]

Thank you! Many of the things I did were in a "volunteer" capacity so I fulfilled some dreams that way because I couldn't have a career in all of them. :)As for following the intuition, I am definitely not perfect at it by any means. I'm going to look up the values things you listed. I do need to work more on trying to figure that out. @@Emmaanders

This is such a thought provoking, excellent video! Thank you SO much Emma, this has really helped. ❤❤❤

[@Emmaanders]

Glad it was helpful! xx

[@everydayluxury]

Thank you so much for this Emma! I’m going to try out the values exercise! ❤❤

[@Emmaanders]

Hope it helps. It’s really helped me focus x

[@iheartoppa]

The Midnight Library! I loved that book, its definitely the type of book you can reread again when when needed. Ps. Your hair looks so lovely

[@Emmaanders]

Thank you 😘. I hardly ever re-read books and I read it twice. I don't know what it is about the way it's written but it's so incredibly uplifting xx

[@user-ml2jo2kk9c]

As always, you are geniune, smart and real! Thank you, dear Emma, and please continue sharing your thoughts, I am very interested in your opinions

[@Emmaanders]

Thank you so much! xx

[@Indiana_Girl757]

A great video, thank you! Amazing insight and helpful. I am struggling in my current position as admin support for a large healthcare organization. I need to walk away for myself and my mental health. And find what I can contribute elsewhere. Healthcare fatigue is everywhere. We enter the profession to help, and the barriers to accomplish help are real. I don’t even know how to articulate a better response.

[@Emmaanders]

I think you articulated that perfectly. It's awful times in healthcare- but we only get one life and you've got to make sure you're really living it. It's so sad that you're in that situation but just know where you're at is one small place in a much bigger picture and there are plenty of other places you can go. Once you're out you'll wonder why you stayed so long... but that doesn't mean getting out is easy xx

Thank you

[@cocacola988]

wow. Just wow. Thank you SO MUCH, I really needed to hear this (I watched it through 3 times XD) I'm going through a confusing time as well, I feel like I don't have the tools as my disposable to go after my dream of opening up my own pilates studio but I think about it every day (and night). Can you share how exactly you got started on your own business, down to the nitty gritty steps that you took in the very begining? Also thank you so much for the book recommendation, I've placed the order and can't wait to read it. Have an amazing day!

[@Emmaanders]

It's amazing that you know what you want- and sounds lovely. Yes- I'll do that video absolutely. When you have something that fills your thoughts like that you have to go for it! You'll find a way. Focus on what you want and take small steps- but start taking those steps xx

[@marysuze]

I wanted to be an artist when I was young. But because I was “smart” and supposed to go to college on a scholarship, I focused on academics. I am in my 70s now and finally making art, just for myself. I felt I could not die with the regret of not having given it a try. My friends and family are very supportive now as they see how happy I am. And on the plus side, they do also enjoy the art I am making.

[@ItsOnlyWarPaint]

Great advice in front of a pretty wall 💕

[@Emmaanders]

Thanks C. I'm thinking of changing it up a bit- any suggestions? Hope you and the family are well xx

Sorry...i thought it was a depressing downer of a book. I don't get why its a best seller...even the ending wasn't great. I struggled to finish it. I couldn't relate 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@collectingcamellias4519]

Thank you so much this video! I cannot even tell you how much I needed it! 🥹❤️ Also, I love handbags too! ☺️🫶
