Page 75 the first question will the risk potentially give you skills and experience that you should not get in your current seat if you stayed over the next 12 months?

In the book

But before any of it, know yourself honestly — your strengths, your blind spots, your true motives. Accept the fare, and bound it. Take the risks your destination genuinely requires, asking of each whether it will give you skills and experience you'll keep, or open you to people and relationships worth having. Then protect the downside, refuse the few risks never worth taking, and leap where the fall is survivable. — The Flight Plan (Purpose/Wisdom/Risk)
