? A client offered to increase my rate by 50% and promised 2x more work.
I turned him down to spend more time with family and focus on self-care, which was priceless.
? My old boss offered me a 10% raise.
I quit and landed a job that offered a 2.5x higher salary the next week.
? I landed a “too-good-to-be-true” managerial role at a very young age.
I quit after 1 day because the CEO was a super toxic racist a-hole and I didn’t need that drama in my life.
? I had a cushy 6-figure “dream job” and got an 8% raise after a few months.
I quit and started making 2x more money while working 1/3 the amount of hours as a self-employed consultant.
……………………..
Over the last 10 years, in each of these 4 situations, EVERYONE told me NOT to quit.
There were lots of fights, tears and even a few panic attacks.
Each time, I was terrified I was making the biggest mistake of my life.
But you know what, every time I quit a job or “fired” a client….something wayyy better always came along.
I’ve NEVER regretted quitting a job. Ever.
If your gut tells you a job or client isn’t working out….TRUST YOUR GUT.
There will always be more opportunities (and better ones!) if you’re willing to take a risk and make a big change in your life.
