In general, organizations are afraid to fire customers, no matter how unreasonable. This is a mistake. It's good for you.

How was your day? If your answer was "fine," then I don't think you were leading.

How often do our heroes stand still? It's hard to imagine Spock and Kirk landing on a planet and just relaxing for a month or two. Just hanging out has nothing to do with boldly going where no one has gone before. What makes us different from every other creature is that we go places, places we've not gone before. We do it willingly, and often. What makes our work and our life interesting is discovery, surprise, and the risk of exploration.

You don't have to settle. It's a choice you get to make every day.
