I’m about to walk out of my job. I’m literally sat typing this at my desk and I’ve had enough.

Nothing in particular has happened, I work at a Sales Manager at a marketing agency after having closed B2B for 4 years at an average conversion rate of 30% ( cold leads )and recently have been promoted. It’s just not what I want to do anymore, I’m good at what I do and can competently close clients, but I’m sick of lining someone else’s pockets when there’s so much more out there.

Can anyone give me some advice/guidance on where to begin? I’m 25 and live in the UK. I don’t have a great deal of money behind me, I guess I’m so bored at work that I spend my weekends/holidays squandering money to try and break the monotony.

I want to level up and have a decent quality of life, but what motivates me more is being self sufficient and not having to answer to shareholders that don’t even know my name.

Any advice/stories would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

    Everyone’s risk tolerance is different. I would have a well constructed plan before ditching steady income no matter how boring it is.
