Yes, you need to leave right now!
Work And Study / / December 25, 2019
Altusher James (James Altucher), American businessman and a talented author, believes that we are entering a new era - the era of free self-realization, where our success depends only on us. In this new era, no one can tell us how much is an hour of our work, what rules we should write an article or make a film. Thanks to the Internet every day we develop and complement your personality, every day is revealed in social networks, we have nothing to limit, are not forced to follow the generally accepted standards development. The author's position is quite radical, but it seemed interesting to us.
James himself says that in the morning on weekdays, always woke up in a depressed state. He is lying and could not bring myself to get out of bed. And the cat, who stared at him through the window, he seemed much more lively than himself. And the work itself liked James. Do not like the way he organized approach to it: a fixed-time, fixed salary and so on.
Here are a few reasons why, according to the author's concept, you have to quit your job without regret.
Security and stability
Previously, in order to succeed, it was necessary to pass a series of specific stages of career development. First, we need to work as a gofer, then grow to the assistant, and so on. This saw a certain stability and security, it was like a neat white fence around the front yard. In fact, such a mythical stability surrender our will. This fence is not protected and prevented us to get out of the defined territory. But now come other times and no fence is gone, if we do not want them to protect themselves. In addition, there is no guarantee that our site will not take someone else in the near future - millions of people would dream to get to your office, in your prison, to present them with this opportunity.
your boss
Most people do not like their boss. We do often enter into relationships with others, guided by the wrong message, and then suffer. I was too young. I do not really know what I want. I became interested in the girl, and she reciprocated. As a result, I am unhappy. Such a relationship should be interrupted to stop being unhappy and open up to something new. That's why half the weddings end in divorce. That's why you need to quit your job.
your colleagues
Look carefully at the people around you. Do you really want to spend with them shoulder to shoulder much of his life? You have to communicate with them more often than with their own children.
Fear
Many people do not leave the unloved work simply because they are afraid not to find another. Of course, if you just enter into the office of the chief, he spit on the table and proudly clap the door, it is very likely that your fears are justified. To care must be carefully prepared, tune in, weigh the pros and cons, see the alternative: what you really wanted to do. And do not be afraid of new beginnings, even if it's a startup.
Own work
Most people do not like their job. Here is a man studying for several years at the university, receives a diploma, and then realizes that he was mistaken in choosing a profession. He became a certified expert in the field, to develop in which he was interested. He tormented himself with doubts, he feels guilty not clear why. And then we move on to the next step.
The situation is exacerbated
You have depression begins without a specific reason. It comes a feeling of permanent dissatisfaction, as if your life consists not go as intended. Something went wrong. You start to look for salvation in conversations about politics, discuss other people's debts and premiums crank office romance. Then psychological experiences escalate into physical ailments. And it only gets worse with time. Now imagine how, in retirement, you will say: "It was the most horrible 40 years of my life." Like?
Work kills your personality
You perform the same actions every day. During this mechanical bustle you lose the ability to create something creative on their own. Of course, someone is lucky, someone comes into the office with joy. But most of us can not boast of mutual love with his work.
The article by James Altushera there are two additional points. The fact that many continue to work to pay for their children's education, and that the powerful force that keeps us at work, even hated, - is to buy their own homes. James believes that these incentives are presently losing their relevance, and reinforces their opinions materials on this topic: here and here.
The author of this text is not just radically change something in my life and did not regret. His premise is simple: do not be afraid to take risks and remain with nothing. Be careful not to sit near his trough all his life and not do anything to start living better.
