Why are you doing this?
And if that reason isn't enough, once again, no lifestyle change is going to fix that because doing something you feel has no meaning for 40 hours a week is not easily reversible.
So this is when we arrive at the, maybe I need to just get out of here point of this conversation.
And by here, I mean, not just the job, but like the nine to five lifestyle.
First thing to consider before you jump the gun, is there a way that you can do the parts of your job that you love in a different format?
before you quit?
So like freelance, shift work, is there a way that you can hone in on the one part of the job that you like and do that in a specialized way?
I think jumping onto parallel tracks before diverting the path is obviously a possibility.
Secondly, is there just any way of doing this job in a way that is satisfying?
What would you risk by trying out that path before you risked the entire structure?
I think it does eventually come down to a cost benefit analysis of, you know, if I have, again, 70 good years on the earth and I have one life and I'm in my 20s and I have more freedom than I ever will.
And if I'm being honest with myself, I'm not very happy.
Like, would I continue?
Should I continue to choose this?
Not should I keep doing this?
Would I choose this for myself every day from now?
What are the pro cons of that?
I think it will feel very scary to walk away from something stable, but this is something we often miss when we sit down and do a pro cons list of like, do I stay or do I go?
Do I change?
Do I stay the same?
