THE WHAT- I put in my resignation yesterday for the end of the month on a very high paying job. As I am in sales, walking away yesterday would have screwed my team over. I'm not angry nor do I want to burn any bridges(the people I work with have been and still are amazing to be around), but it was just something I had to do. Was it crazy, stupid, a mistake, the best decision I made? Time will tell. But I AM WILLING to lose everything I've worked for in order to gain the level of independence I want. This is a sink or swim scenario for me. I did not save/prepare for this decision. It did need to be made though. FOR ME. Last week we lost a good friend/co-worker at my place of business. We all put in crazy long hours and pretty much work everyday. With my friends death, I thought "if I was destined NOT to wake up tomorrow, would I want my final hours spent making someone else money, stuck inside, and not enjoying time with my friends and family?! Plenty of money, but no real quality of life. So I started thinking, A hamster on a golden wheel is still a hamster on a wheel. THE WHY- I finally reached my burn out point(5 years in now) and with my friends death I really had to take a look and my life and happiness. I looked, and I was highly lacking in fulfillment/enjoyment. This is why I decided to take the risk and why I think you should too.. Listen closely my friends, if America isn't going to be America much longer, GO GET AND DO YOUR AMERICAN DREAM BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE!!
