But the basic crux of it is a combination of things.
First of all, you need to build a bit of a boat for yourself.
Like six months...
maybe even a year of savings, get your costs down.
Because these things, even if you don't make the leap, just less pressure to have to have the job, the better.
You don't ever want to be forced into having the job.
So when people get big mortgages and they get big car loans and they get big credit card debt, what they're really doing is they're now working for those organizations, right?
On top of the job, they're working in the job,
to then pay those organisations.
So just get your costs down.
In general, I think this is a good bit of advice, but then it will allow you to come out of fight or flight because a lot of people are in fight or flight.
You've got big bills to pay.
You need this job.
There's no questioning it because you need it.
Second step, I think...
The thing that I've seen work for most people is imagine you're 92 years old and you didn't try it.
You didn't do it.
You won't be able to go back to that 40 year old you.
It's too late.
