It could be a good thing. Not being needed can mean that you’re doing work that matters and supporting others.
Not being needed means that you’re setting others up for success; that you’ve created momentum and having trained people so well that they could replace you.
Too often we want to feel needed. It’s a status and ego thing.
But there’s a better way to evaluate your value than you being needed, relied upon and vital to the work.
Would they miss you if you were gone?
You can not be needed and be missed if you were gone.
Stay Positive & That’s The Sweet Spot
