       Why you should quit your job!
                                                       Issue 2

Every day I would wake up more sick and tired than the next. Although I was a little sick and tired from
the winter weather and the season, I’m was more sick and tired of working for someone else.

The thought of going to work for someone else every day made me sick to my stomach. I woke up in the
morning, got ready for work, and headed out the door. I’m was always in a good mood when I’d leave
the house and was away from work, but as soon as I walked in the door at my job, the happiness
subsided and the frustrations arose.

The following situations are not intended to be complaints (because I did something about it), but rather
situations you can relate to in order to motivate you to quit your job. I’m very confident that everyone
reading this article has experience similar situations in the past.

Situation 1

Even though I worked very hard and did a great job month-after-month, I still had my managers riding
me every day to do better because nothing was ever good enough for our company. As employees, we
were constantly scrutinized.

One day I got so sick and tired of it and not being paid the money I knew I was worth. I finally told my
boss to get off my back because he was constantly breathing down my neck and there was no need to
ride me the way he was. I’ve always been a very self-motivated person, and the way he approached me
was hands down the worst way to get someone motivated to do a better job. He told me that if I didn’t
change my attitude, I could go home. For fear of not having a job the next day, I changed my attitude
and went about my business.

Situation 2

My family is spread throughout the country and my boss told me that I couldn’t go home for
Thanksgiving nor Christmas because I HAD to work the following days. If I wasn’t at work bright and
early the day after the holidays, I would be out of a job. If it weren’t for a few great friends who knew I
was far away from home, I would have had to sit at home alone on Thanksgiving & Christmas.

That was the last straw!

I had to sacrifice a ton of fun, friendships, and enjoyment of life for the greater good. I made a
commitment to myself that I would not quit pursuing my dreams until I was able to quit my job and live
the life I have always wanted to live. I had to put my life on hold for a short period of time which was

very difficult. My friends constantly asked me to go out and have fun. If I didn’t go out, they would get
very upset. Finally, I had to ask them to be supportive of my goals.

I received a lot of grief in the beginning because most people couldn’t comprehend the thought of
working for themselves and what it takes to be successful. Most people have been programmed from
an early age to work 40 hours a week for 40 years for someone else, but not me. I was re-programmed
in my early 20s and vowed I would quit my job before I was 30. Of course, I wasn’t able to before then
because I never sacrificed enough.

If you really want to quit your job and accomplish the goals you have set for yourself, you must sacrifice
and become obsessed with your business. You must become well known in your business community
and be the first person every potential customer or client thinks about when they are ready to purchase
the product or service you provide.

In my opinion, obsession is success’ predecessor. To quit your job and become successful, you must
wake up early in the morning before anyone else is awake and work on your business; you must get off
work in the evening and come home to work on your business; you must talk to everyone you run into
about your business; you must pass out business cards to everyone you talk to; you must write down all
your thoughts and ideas; you must share your expertise with the world; you must subscribe to my eZine;
and lastly, your must stop what you are doing right now, and ask yourself whether you are doing what
you love.
