Day 1 was a success, I feel accomplished. I feel like I'm on the path that I'm supposed to be in life. This is what I ENJOY doing. Day 2 is in full effect and I now have a game plan. I'm focused, committed, and learning new things every day about life in general.
I'm sure some people think I'm crazy. Who, in this economy, quits their job, that they are GREAT at and they enjoy doing? It's been a different experience for me. I feel more confident each day that my decision was the right one. I have priorities that weren't being fulfilled, I have goals I would have NEVER been able to accomplish staying in the position I was in. It was tearing me down. My relationships with family, friends, etc were being put in a place that it was impossible for them to grow in a positive direction. It took me 6 months to make the decision to quit, I was nervous, scared, and knew it would be hard. BUT, when did anything come easy that was worth it? Staying in that job was EASY, I could do it with my hands tied behind my back. I wasn't growing as a person, I wasn't learning new things.
I believe in the importance of growing as a person. Continually trying to better yourself. It's important to me because I want to be a better friend, family member, lover. They all deserve that from me. I deserve that for myself.
What I would say to you if you are unhappy with your life, for physical, financial, or emotional reasons. Focus on learning about yourself, learning to grow as a person. Each and every person in this world has the ability to be a better version of themselves. Pick up a book, push yourself harder in a workout, choose a healthier option at dinner, take the first step to grow as a person. Be consistent, and those small steps will some day turn into a huge leap and you will wake up happier than you were when you started. The first step is key, so choose wisely, and don't beat yourself up if you take two steps back, focus on your future and create a better life for yourself. You have control, take it!
