You need to ask yourself why you’re staying in a situation where you’re unhappy and give yourself permission to quit.

For many people, it’s their boring, unexciting, dead-end job. I'm not bashing 9-to-5 jobs. In fact, I think that if you found a place that you love going to every day, where the culture is exciting, the people are warm and welcoming, and you have a great work-life balance, you’ve struck gold.

Quitting is only taboo because people have their priorities screwed up. Too many people think they can’t quit only because they need their job to pay for dumb stuff to impress people they don’t even like.

When you stop living based on other people’s opinions, you start to see that quitting can actually be a strategic move. Worst case scenario, you disappoint some people or you regret your decision. The good news is, you can always get another job.

Stop looking for permission from your partner, society, your mom, your dad, or people on social media to go live the life you want. If it means less money now for more happiness later, so be it.

Why are you not willing to quit and take one step backwards to take a step forward for the rest of your life?
