I quit my job last week.
And I know I should feel scared, but I don’t. I mean, I do feel a little scared. But I am much more excited than petrified. I am quitting my job with no definite plan, without a full job offer, and without any idea. And that’s okay.
I keep telling myself it’s okay, because it will be.
Being completely honest, it’s been a challenging several months. I’ve been trying so hard to figure out what I’m doing next, working on 3-months plans and 5-year plans and then tossing every plan aside. It’s been petrifying to figure out whether I want to stay in China or not. Whether I want to stay in my apartment or not. Whether I want to stay in my field or not. It’s been making me beyond unhappy to keep mulling those things in my mind, without a way out. And then I realized I do have a way out.
So here I am, without a plan, ready to take the next step, whatever it may be.
Lots of luck to you!! 🙂
Thank you!! I’m really scared, but really excited for the next step!
Well done for taking some time out to think about your choices. Great post!
Thank you so much for your kind thoughts!
Good luck with finding out what you want! You had my interest with your first sentence: “I just quit my job” haha 🙂
Thank you so much for the kind words 🙂 it’s been a bit of a rollercoaster, but i’m finally starting to get excited about the pending unemployment
Don’t worry you’ll do great!
