Thoughts on quitting job? I have started an e-commerce business. In my first month I have made about 80% of my job income in profit (which is higher than my monthly expenses). My job is sucking the soul out of me and I have 0 motivation there. One upside is I have a a lot of time to slack off and work on the business while at work.
The rational move would be to stick out the job until I have out earned my job income consistently for X months and have x months savings in the bank. I probably have about 4 months savings right now.
However, I dread going to work every single morning. My sole goal is to get out of this job as soon as possible. I’m even willing to get a part time job to supplement my new business earnings.
Does anyone have any advice for me?
Honestly, I can’t imagine that you are adding any value to your current boss by being unmotivated . The fact of the matter is that working as an entrepreneur is risky. So if you plan to do it, i think you should just jump in and give your all. You’re more likely to make the business more of a success when you are working on it full time because it is something that fulfills you. There is no point in taking valuable time away from your business and investing it in something that drains you. I feel like there will always be something that will come up that will make you feel like it’s not time to leave your job. - like you need more money.
