Quiting Job That You Don’t Like

e) Quiting Job That You Don’t Like: Some people choose their dream job and for them, everything is clear, develop an interest, get a relevant degree, cultivate expertise, and climb to the top of the ladder. These people are very lucky. The rest of us still don’t determine what we want. This is not bad thing actualy. Maybe you have diverse interests. Maybe you never really thought about it. Or maybe (especially if you’re a web junkie like me) your ideal career didn’t exist 5 years ago.

Do you have a job or a career? This question is very importan for the begining. Because there is difference between job and career. A job is not thing that be committed with passion. A job is just work. A career is your identity. It is is inseparable from who you are and who you want to be. A person who has career live with her/his dream. To choose a career and quiting job we go step by step.

1. Follow Passion: For someone who quit her/his job it is easy to feel powerless. Everyone has responsibility and expenses. There are two questions in this step. One is How do you quit your job and start your career if you don’t know what it is? And the other question is How do you quit your job and start your career if you probably aren’t qualified anyways? The first step is answering first question by following your passion. Not to say that if you like to read fiction you should become a novelist, or a painter if you admire Van Gogh. It’s important to be practical and find a career that is both personally satisfying and valuable to others. The key is finding place where your passions and aptitudes intersect with valuable labor. For this i recommend research. Read books, search internet, watch documentary programs on tv. Have conversations with people that have career and already have a passion. For every passion (art, science, sports, nature, etc.) there are thousands of careers in close proximity. The point most people miss is that career opportunities lie, not in indulging the passion itself, but in bringing it to others.Do you love art? Maybe a career in design is right for you. Love talking to new people? Maybe you’d be great in sales. There’s a place where what you love to do intersects what you’re great at — that’s your ideal career.

2. Building a Resume and Network: The next step is improve yourself for your job and find new people in your industry. The only way to improve yourself about your career is starting as fast as you can. Don’t let inexperience or shyness hold you back. Creating a body of work goes hand in hand with building a network. Your hard work is not valuable without people that you can share. The web is an amazing place to find and be found by potential colleagues and employers.

3. Time to Leap: Strangely, quitting a job you hate may be a difficult decision. Even when we aren’t happy, we get comfortable and resistant to change. Don’t let fear keep you in a job that’s just OK because the stability is nice and it pays pretty good. Test the market, look for opportunities, revamp your resume, peruse job boards. Just get out there and search. Take your career into your own hands. Your work shouldn’t be something you tolerate. It should be something that drives you to become the person you should be, to give everything you can.
