14 Reasons Why You Should Quit Your Job

I have several friends that have lamented this down-turn in Bitcoin and crypto-currency because they were feeling quite successful in their investments and were contemplating putting in their resignations. Basically, they thought that their accounts had grown to large that they could comfortably and happily say "I Quit" to their boss.

My theory about this is, having enough money in your bank account or your cyrpto-wallet should not be the deciding factor for quitting your job. There are actually 14 better reasons you should quit your job.

1. When a four day weekend is not enough . . . you should seriously consider quitting your job.
2. When your kids have a week long school break and suddenly, you wish you were in middle school again.
3. When you get that sinking feeling every Sunday night at 11:05PM . . . without looking at a clock.
4. If your boss's favorite band is Venom. (Their hit song is: Welcome to Hell)
5. When you say in your head (referring to your boss) "If she says that one more time, Imma . . ."
6. If you walk into the office 20 minutes early and you're still sweating.
7. If lunch time is the height of your day . . . you should seriously consider quitting your job.
8. If your bathroom breaks start being longer than 20 minutes.
9. Three executives turn in their resignations on the same day and scream out "See you later sucka's!" as they burn rubber out of the parking lot.
10. Every time you see a 4 x 8.5 inch piece of pink paper you jump out of your skin.
11. You overhear the word "bankruptcy" in hushed tones at the monthly Executive Team Meeting.
12. You saw your boss naked by the recycled packing peanuts - you didn't stay long enough to find out why.
13. You did a stripper pole dance at the company's holiday party, have no recollection of event, but discovered footage on YouTube (you got 15,499 views though!).
14. You have this unyielding yearning and urge to follow your dream and time is running out.

All of these are really good reasons to quit your job. But number 14 is the best reason.

Don't be a chump. You would most likely have your resume in circulation for any of the reasons numbered 1-13. Don't disregard 14.

You are worthy of following and fulfilling your dreams. And okay, maybe you can't see your life without a job that pays the bills. Maybe you don't actually believe that your dream could sustain you and your family. That's fine, believe that for now. Then at every waking moment of your life, outside of your job and immediate obligations . . . work toward your dream. Every minute you can, even if it's only 30 minutes a day. A little progress is . . . guess what? . . .progress!

So today, promise me. Even it's imaginary. Even if it's in your head. Quit your job. And grab onto your dream.
