Things You Need To Know Before You Leave Your 9–5 Corporate Job, Are You Ready?
What is it that you would want to do if you are not afraid?
So now you are planning of going against the current? It’s pretty damn scary, but everything you feel is pretty normal. Successful people like Jeff Bezos, Dwayne “The Rock”, Oprah Winfrey, JK Rowling and Thomas Edison were also working on a 9–5 job and some of them even got fired before they discovered their true potential, they didn’t took the leap smiling, they were as scared as you or probably worse.
The truth is, the image in our mind that everything else could go wrong, is based on very little information. Sometimes, the things that are holding us back were based on theory, projection, instead of looking for people who are already living the life that we want, you need to seek for answers yourself because it will not come to you, you need to find it, and create a plan around it.
The trouble with being in the rat race is that even if you win, you are still a rat. — Lily Tomlin
