See Things Differently...Look For The Possibilities...

I would like to have the chance to explore independent consultancy with more flexibility and a chance to work on more varied projects.

~Worker Living in Nigeria

You are reading from the book “Just Quit” & Live

Today, is there any space and time for you to work on some other projects that interest you — even if they aren’t currently assigned to you? 

Can you take a project that you’re working on to the next level or in a different direction? 

If those opportunities aren’t there in this job, do you have enough energy during your time off to explore freelance opportunities – no matter how small they might be – just to give you some different types of projects to work on?

P.S.

Google Freelance Opportunities…at a minimum you need to have or develop the skills to be ABLE to work freelance gigs.

If You're Feeling Trapped In Your Job...Admit It & Live Differently This Year

I feel trapped in an endless cycle with no end.

~Worker Living in New York

You are reading from the book “Just Quit” & Live

Today, ask yourself if you feel trapped in your job, at your organization, with your team, at the location you work, or working for your boss.

 It’s a yes or no answer –

DO YOU FEEL TRAPPED?   

P.S. (This is for all the people out there looking for a link, or a video, or ANOTHER inspirational quote.)

NOBODY is going to give you the answer to the above question.  Stop looking for other people to figure this out for you.  Stop beating yourself up about the situation you are in.  Stop lying to yourself about it. Just face it. Stare it down.  Look at it.  It is what it is.  Take a good long look at your work situation, because until you face it you’ll STAY stuck for ANOTHER year.

You CAN get un-stuck this year.  You MUST get un-stuck this year. Step-by-Step you can do this.  Yeah YOU can wake up and WANT to JUMP out of bed. Why NOT you?

P.P.S.

If you’ve read this far…put your hand over your heart…leave it there until you can feel your heart beating. (It might take a minute to tune in and feel the beating…you might even have to close your eyes to focus in.)

Now, this is your reminder that you are alive.  You are still alive.

STOP EXISTING & LIVE!!!

 

Work-Life Balance Starts Within...Make Sure What You Think, Say & Do Are In Harmony

I have no work life balance, however, I still don’t have time to do my work properly.

~Worker Living in Malta

Finding balance starts within.

Today, find balance within yourself.  

Ask for balance in both your inner and outer world. Ask for a sense of peace within. 

New Year Set Boundaries - Decide What You Will NOT Do On Your Job

My current job forces me to act the opposite of my values.

~Worker Living in Singapore

You are reading from the book “Just Quit” & Live

Today, be true to yourself.

Clarify your values and what is important to you.

Set boundaries of what you will and will not do on this job.

Another Year...Monday's Coming...Alarm Clock...Feeling Like A Robot? There Is Another Way...Celebrating Life

I just know I am not where I am supposed to be. I need to be doing something else.

My life cannot and should not be boiled down to the repetitive robotic tasks I complete each day.

I believe in a higher purpose. I refuse to sell my soul, my hours, my relationships, and my all, for sustenance. It’s just not right. I quit.    

~Worker Living in Lebanon

You are reading from the book “Just Quit” & Live

Today, remember you are not a robot.  You are not a machine.  You are a person and you have feelings, relationships and a soul.  

Do not allow this job to take away your essence.

When you begin to feel like your tasks are robotic in nature, remember that you do have control over your thoughts while you are performing  mind-numbing tasks, and because of that,  you ARE in control of my life.

 

Gratitude Changes The Game...Play To Win...

I am not suited for the role. The constant criticism has created lack of confidence and I feel it dipping every day.

I don’t like my boss even though I think he has done as much if not more for me to help me.

It’s hard to find time to interview with other companies. The constant stress and hatred towards what I do is affecting my personal relationship. I have been a horrible girlfriend constantly whining and complaining.

~Worker Living in Massachusetts

You are reading from the book “Just Quit” & Live

Being grateful changes the game.

You can’t be grateful and miserable at the same moment.

Just focus on being grateful for one thing. It’s a start.

When you focus on gratitude it is a fertile ground for more things to grow that you can be grateful for.

A New Year Is Coming...Get Un-Stuck...

I’m fed up with the crappy dead-end life of 60 hour work weeks in a field I never wanted to have anything to do with.

~Worker Living in CANADA ALBERTA OIL COUNTRY

Today, we have to admit that we got stuck for whatever reason.

We got stuck in a job, a profession, a city, an industry…stuck. We don’t have to STAY stuck. We’re adults.  We make decisions everyday about a host of things.

Today get un-stuck.  Make the decision to “Just Quit” & Live.  You might not know when or how but decide to get un-stuck. Watch what happens…the universe gives a collective sigh and says…FINALLY…
