Waiting To Quit

Garth Beyer

Are you stalling from doing the hard part of figuring out what to do after you quit or even when to quit?

Of course, this is larger than being about a job.

And it’s more than quitting something that is hurting you; it applies to what you might be enjoying or a project that is succeeding, too.

A slot that’s filled with something good or bad is still a slot that’s filled.

There’s no shortage of reasons why we stall thinking about folding or throwing in the towel, but there’s also no shortage of reasons to think it through, plan for it, organize it.

The results are always better than the ones after we wait until we’re forced out or fail or when we get so sucked into the work that we lose sight of what we’ve given up to get there. No need to wait until you hit a wall or until you’re inspired to act spontaneously.

Thinking ahead of when it’s time to let something go is scary, it’s hard and it’s void of any reassurance… but damn does it make the future transition more smooth.

Nothing lasts forever and we can plan for it.

Stay Positive & Set Yourself Up For Transitions (And Of Course, Don’t Forget To Expect Surprises)
