Don't Fear the Lateral Move
Success can be kinda like a line dance. It doesn't always move in a straight direction—side steps can take you further than you might think.
Recent research from a number of sources suggests that your job satisfaction and career trajectory can benefit from lateral moves. They allow you to broaden your skills and professional network, and they help keep mental stimulation high.
So when an interesting opportunity comes your way, don't be afraid to sliiiiide to the left. . . or sliiiide to the right. . .
