Adios safe and secure. Good riddance "working for the man." Time to jump in with both feet. What about the job? There are countless reasons not to bound away:
- Great people
- Decent pay with benefits
- Inspiring leadership and management
- Some opportunity to be creative, take risk, create new revenue
Practically speaking, I shouldn't quit. But, selling advertising, while enjoyable, is not what I love.
Preparing for a sales presentation: I'd mentally practice scales. Rough day full of clients' passive aggressive "thanks but I'll pass": I'd use the frustration as art-fuel at rehearsal. Closed the big sale: I'd celebrate by jamming to my favorite groove.
I could continue investing energy into long days/weeks and make a boat load of money, "professionally develop" and maybe be promoted to a leadership role. But, in the end would I be fulfilled? No. So I quit.
Time frame, finances, long term goals, and "what exactly are you going to be doing?" are questions I intend to answer with this blog. And in the process I hope to nudge someone out there (maybe you) to find what makes them happy and take a leap too.
Much love,
Levi
