Most people go with the short term:
I like the football team
It’s expensive
They’ve always been my friend since 5th grade
A write off. There’s no substance.
Here’s a different way to look at it:
1.Are the people this place attracts the sort of people I want to spend time with and become more like?
2. Is the system that is in place here one that pushes and cajoles and processes people to become more like the kind of person I’d like to be?
Once you answer these two questions, pick the least expensive option that helps you get to where you’re going.
Thanks Seth for the prompt.
