It seems like at least once a week I get one of my students calling me about how they’re quitting their job. Does working in the corporate sphere really suck that bad? It got me thinking.

Paid vacations, fortune 500 benefits, great salary, bonuses, company car…life couldn’t be greater…right? If it’s such a great gig, why do so many people spend 80% of their working day thinking about how much they hate it? The answer is simple, it’s engrained in our DNA.

Really. I’m a scientist* so I should know :)

In all seriousness…throughout history mankind has striven to explore, to lead, to create, and to invent. It seems to bring us a feeling of greatness that can only be achieved through entrepreneurship. While working for someone else CAN be fulfilling, there is a certain group of “unemployables” who will always know, they are destined to go out on their own.

For me, I couldn’t keep a job. I hated working for other people…really I hated listening to them because they wouldn’t listen to me. I wanted my ideas heard. I wanted to create and invent. To be noticed. I eventually realized that the workplace wasn’t for me. I quickly go out of it and over a short period of time became finacially free online. I made more money online in a month that I had in a year working for other people…

Fast forward a few years and I own a multi-million dollar company teaching others my secrets to success.

Fortunately, it’s not as hard to do as many think which is why I get so many people calling me about their “quit” day. Most of them have a specific date set in their minds and strive to reach it. A few, do it on a whim after they generate a quick 5 figures online.

If you want to reach that goal, you need to have one set. Sounds simple but it’s the first step. Set your quitting date because…working sucks.
