quitting your Job
By Coach Alexander

3. Introduction
• Being employed is one of the basic fundamentals of surviving in this world. If you
want food to continue living, you have to work. If you want shelter or would like to
send your children to school, you just need to have a job. Money is what gets most
things done and that’s not going to change for a while. Having even loose change
in your wallet these days to spare is like giving it your awe, money is so difficult to
find.
• Being on the job is becoming tremendously demanding. Why do we say this? Well
especially in heavily industrialized countries like the United States of America,
employees are required to work long and stressful hours just to beat deadlines. In
an industry, which gives very little room for errors, people are devoting much of
their time and energy into producing the perfect product, which wins the hearts of
consumers. The working environment is becoming fierce, demanding and
strenuous for anyone these days.
• However, people who are sick and tired of everything decide it is time to call it
quit. The trouble is, they know they know they should do it but they just don’t
know whether it’s the right thing to do. If you are one of them, then you should be
reading this article.
4. Why people quit?
• People quit their jobs for a variety of reasons
some of them genuine while others not so
genuine. Some people quit their jobs because
they found a better one somewhere. Others
decide to quit because of frustration with the low
pay, poor working environment and poor working
relationship with their fellow workers. Another
reason people decide is because they want to
further their education or get into a career of
their choice. Whatever the reason for you, the
fact still remains….you want to quit your jobs
6. Do you really want to Quit?
• It’s very important to ask yourself this question before
making any rush decisions “Do I really want to quit?”.
Sometimes we are taken away by negative feelings that
we may want to quit over a Job that is actually the best
for us. Therefore, before you call it quit, first of all ask
yourself whether this is something you really want to
do. Have you thought through things carefully?
Perhaps the reasons for leaving aren’t really big
enough reasons to leave. By considering these things
carefully then can you come up with a concrete
conclusion as to whether it is a good idea or not to
leave?
7. Do you have to quit?
• A person who wants to quit is different from a person
who has to quit. If the Job you currently hold is
becoming detrimental to your health, you might have
to quit. Actually, if your supervisors even become
suspicious that the work is making you unhealthy, they
might decide to let you go themselves. But here is
another scenario; maybe you find yourself a better Job
somewhere, with better conditions than the current.
Should you decide to leave? That might be a good
decision. Of course much depends on the way you see
things at this point, because it really falls on you to
decide.
8. How are the conditions?
• You know what folks? Different jobs offer different conditions of
service. Some Jobs will offer you a better pay with other benefits
attached while some others will offer even better. If you are
considering leaving for another prospect, weigh the pros and cons
of doing so. A better pay doesn’t necessarily mean being better off
nor does working for a world proclaimed organization always mean
you will be have great conditions. Take this as an example, if you are
given a higher salary for a Job that’s 100 Km away from home, you
might just find that there is little differences from your current one.
Why do we say so? Well, if you add up the costs of fuel and the risk
involved in moving a long distance, the real net salary you will have
as take home may just be the same salary as the one you currently
have. So weighing matters in such a way when considering to leave
can really help you come up with a good decision.
9. What does the Company policy Say?
• Some people make the mistake of quickly quitting a job without
reading carefully what the company policy says. When you decide
that you want to leave your job, make sure that you have read the
policy word for word. Every company has rules and regulations,
which are all legally binding. If the company makes a breach in
company policy, you could take them to court. If the other way
happens, then you have yourself to blame if you cant get your
benefits in good time. Some companies have a specific time frame
they should be notified before calling it quit. The sooner you realize
it the better. However, doing things by the book is not always
followed sometimes. If for instance you are leaving the company in
good faith and your relationship with the owners is still healthy with
no hard feelings left, then it’s simply a matter of talking to them.
They might understand your situation and let you leave even when
it’s on short notice.
10. Are you holding onto any Company
Debt ?
• Its important to consider whether you are
holding onto any company debt or company
property. Most companies won’t let you go
until you have cleared all your debt and
returned any property that you may be
holding onto. It’s just that simple, imagine if
you were in their shoes you would have done
the same thing. However, if you are able to
pay all your debt and return all the things you
owe them, then well and good for you.
11. Am I ruining my reputation?
• Leaving a job in good faith with stronger
relationships would have a positive impact in
your future job prospects. You see, the
industry has lot’s of networks and if you re the
kind who likes getting a job and leaving it after
a short time, you might subject yourself to
serious scrutiny even at interview stage. It’s
better you explore how your departure could
affect your future job prospects with other
companies.
12. Why am I really Leaving?
• Sometimes leaving could be avoided if you
explain to your owners why you are really leaving.
If it’s because of a poor pay, some organizations
are willing to give in to your demands. If it’s
because of certain benefits you are not really
seeing, that explained to them could see you with
something better. However, only when they
refuse to give you the better conditions of service
you need, then can you have a valid reason to
leave the job speedily.
13. What alternative sources of Income
do I have ?
• Truth be told, it is important you have an
alternative source of income before leaving
especially if you are renting a house, keeping a
family or paying for things you need. The key
thing to ask yourself is what other sources of
income do I currently have in order to sustain
myself? If you found yourself an alternative
then good for you.
14. Choosing an alternative source of
Income
• After reading point (8), you might be asking yourself how you can establish
an alternative source of income before you actually call it quit. There are
many alternative sources of income in this world today, however some
may be easy to get into while others may be very hard. But some people
while on their day job try to find a second job. That second job will be
turned into the main Job once they quit their current one. Others, simply
decide to start a money generating business which they work hard to build
each and everyday in the background.
• While its true that starting a business is a lot of hard work, it also depends
on the kind of business you decide to venture in. You can’t aim for big
multi million businesses at this stage because it is highly likely you don’t
even have that kind of money to invest in the first place. But, there are
some businesses that require little investment but quit a reasonable
return. Have you ever heard of making Money Online? Well I am sure you
have, but just incase the concept is new, I will explain what making money
online is really about.
15. Making money online
• Many people are making money online and with this kind of money
they are able to lead a normal life. For some people, earning a living
using the Internet has given them the liberty to do so many things.
But before I even go into the details you might ask how easy it is to
start earning a living online. Well the results vary, but for people like
you who are dedicated and committed to getting results, earning
money could be possible. First of all I would like you to watch this
video of a man who is actually earning money online today.
