Hello dear friends of this great community called Hive, I hope you are having a great week, and that the weekend will be much better. Today I want to talk about a big change that for many is usually a little complex to assume but that always big changes have to be assumed calmly, thought out, programmed, unless they are sudden and not dependent on us, which would lead me to think about other things, which are the ones I want to talk about next?
What can you think or feel when you read the following sentence?
Leave the comfort of a well-paid job
Take a few seconds to think about it, and then continue reading to the end, and I'd like to know what you think after reading me. Let's start...
It is probable that the thoughts that arise in your mind after this phrase are so varied and opposed, that at the moment you don't know what to say, or perhaps you can say at once and without thinking that "You wouldn't risk leaving a good job", much less in the face of the current reality, and it is respectable, but does the work you do make you happy?, if the answer is yes, that well, you are part of a small group of workers worldwide that if they are happy with the work they do, but if your answer is NO, what makes you stay there? do you have any projects you'd like to do? why don't you do them? do you have a retirement plan? ....
Basic questions that we should ask ourselves, because life passes, and being chained to something that makes us unhappy I don't think it's logical...
I can understand that many of those who remain tied to a job for pay, have a family to support, have fallen into debt (house, car, education, among other things), and in order to maintain that standard of living they deserve that income, but they have done little to have a separate income that allows them, even without working, to generate something to cover their basic expenses.
It is possible that my vision is different from that of many, in view of the fact that I have no children, nor acquired debts, but I have always had in mind something that is the independence in the economic thing, after more than two years of intense work in a well paid job I have decided to resign, YES, as you read it, am I crazy? There are those who might think that in these world conditions where the economy has hit as many as someone would dare to leave a good job, but it was all part of a plan for more than a year, it is not a decision taken without a letter up the sleeve, of course.
Well, I have been able to save and invest in some projects that fortunately are working very well, I have saved every penny earned and invested before making any expenses, I have limited myself from many things in these months, in order to guarantee myself a permanent, passive, and other semi-passive income. Why?, simple, I have my life plan, and it's not exactly working for other people's dreams. Does it make sense or does it still sound crazy?
There is a tendency for many people to believe that these things that can generate you a permanent income arise overnight, and nothing is further from the truth than that, projects that last require your initial effort, and even when the work is already consolidated it does not stop, it must continue to maintain it, to make it grow even more and remain focused.
Patience and confidence in what you do must always be there, projecting, organizing, having clear goals (short, medium and long term), forming good work teams, are key aspects in everything you propose. So, would you like to be able to enjoy your life more while you work on your personal projects?, if yes, then I must ask you another question...
Why haven't you started?
Nothing comes up from one moment to the next, it takes time and effort, there are things that I find difficult to understand, such as "many people have the patience to work 30 years in the same place, but not 6 years in their personal projects ", it seems absurd, right, but it is a reality.
For now I say goodbye, I hope you enjoyed my post, I would love to read it in the comments.
Happy and prosperous weekend.
