I feel so free! I left my job that I didn't like ! and now I do what I LOVE!

in life •  7 years ago 

never ever!

do what you don't love.
you will not survive for the long term and if you will,
All your joy of life will come down!
I loved my previous job very much,
I became interested in the crypto world and established a YouTube channel related to it.

It was hot at the time(last September).
Everyone started talking about Bitcoin.
I decided I was going for it, a course for digital currency trading.

I felt so bad about my decision but I thought I would go through this period.
After all, I like to teach (apparently I love teaching children and not adults who want to get rich)
I can say that I love education

I moved to the role of "adviser", and I keep work on what I love teaching childrens.now crypto teaching isn't my main work.

Every day my wife saw how sad I was.
The salary at the bank was much higher than the previous one and still sad face!

But what is it worth ?!

It is not worth when you feel inside you rotting!
Unfortunately, most of my private students have been canceled.
But not bad.
You can start over.

I'm going on a new path! With a smile on my face!

Good on you, brother! Steem on hard. <3

Tomorrow i have my graduation, but I don't know why I feel even more sad. I just feel like nothing much will change about my life, most jobs too are like schools and all my life i used to hate school. Maybe am regretting why i never dropped out early when i had the chance. I feel caged and someone tommorow is going yo hand a piece of paper after toiling for all these years.
I will never do what i don't love again.
Atleast i will use my creativity to turn what i love into money generating source.
Life can be a new place if i decide to do what i want, i can feel it inside.

Naturally sometimes, we cling to something that we do not like for the fact of giving pleasure to others, especially your parents ... I think you always have to do what we like, something we feel comfortable with. .. we will always get used to a routine, but whenever you do not like it you must have the courage to stop and say: Enough is enough! and do what you love most. It costs a lot and we even feel strange when we abandon that "bondage" but it is the best for our wellbeing ... being free is the best thing. Good post friend @amiramnoam, best regards.

Completely according to @rosquilla, especially because I am a living example of what it explains. I studied a career that I did not like just because my parents were afraid to send me to study abroad. During the University I obtained good grades but I always felt that this was not my thing. The best thing I got from this experience were the friends I met and that there I found the one who is now my husband.

Once graduated I had jobs that caused me a lot of stress (because I demanded a lot) and this definitely was not good indicative. But ... and see that there is always a but in life, teaching came to my life (and although I taught in the area where I graduated, interdaction with students made me happy).

Today after 18 years of graduation and 15 giving classes I can say that I still love the feed-back inside the classroom, although I have understood that I have not totally given what makes me completely happy. I am in that search, but see how it is necessary to go through what we went through to understand what makes us unhappy or simply to go prepare and become stronger until we find what we are looking for.

We are told to go to school, go to college, get a job, get married, get kids, retire. And we do it without knowing why. Great comment @rosquilla, following YOU!

Don't get married! That's the best advice I can give you. It took being married for me to become against marriage, but oh my gosh, don't do it. Marriage ruins a relationship. You will be much happier with your significant other if you don't say "I do." You will also be keeping the state out of your personal relationship, which is always a good thing.

wise words, steph! i agree that marriage is a destroyer of relationships. it makes people complacent and lazy. in my relationship, i actually asked him to be my boyfriend (!) -- not forever, just for the summer... and at the end of the summer, we reevaluated and recommitted. now we do that at the end of every season, but without assuming the answer will be yes! it keeps us on our toes, and keeps us in an constant state of courtship! we've done this every season for 8+ years so far, and i must say, it seems far more fun to be his girlfriend than a "wife." i really value that we both want to be with each other forever, and yet don't feel the need to externally validate it with a marriage license. it's so freeing...

What a wonderful idea. All of the commitment and companionship with none of the obligation. Everyone should do this. The world would be a much happier place.

Good now bro you have a great I mean steemit. If you work hard you get more money. I really like your comment. Thanks

Hey mate, do not sweat it. I found my way at 5th year of studies and it was only partialy connected to them. Studied Automatics and Robotics, but it wasn't fun due to much theoretical knowledge and lack of practical lessons. I graduated them but immediately shifted my attenion for programming with focus on Web Development, best desicision ever. :)

i never dropped out early when i had the chance.

This is what's called L-I-F-E! ;+) Don't be so hard on yourself. It sounds like you need a vacation from everything (school/work) for a couple of weeks.

The beauty of finishing...staying with a process to the end; means you'll never have that 'what if' conversation with yourself, imaging how life would've been different if only...

Know that your 'bliss' is what God wants for you, too! If you ask Him, He will be with you at every juncture.

I will never do what i don't love again.

Never say never. It's quite okay to do what you don't 'love' for a season, as long as it is with integrity. Many a star has had to wait tables to pay the bills until the door of opportunity opened for them.

You can always do 'what you love' after the 9-5; but, without an income, misery becomes a worrisome friend.

So, is college next? It sounds like you could stand to take a year off and work a generic gig, while you line your ducks up for 'what you want to do'. By all means, AVOID THE STUDENT-LOAN NOOSE of SLAVERY! ;+)

Life isn't a one stop forevermore adventure. For most, there will be many paths to income...What you want to do in your 20s may look totally different to your dreams in your 30s, ...on and on.

If I can encourage you in one thing: As with your education, NEVER, EVER give up. For the race is not given to the swift; but to those who persevere to the end. (Ecclesiastes 9:11)

Best regards; and, as a small token of applause for your huge accomplishment, I leave you with a tip!

Its a good realization in proper time. I completed my graduation and post graduation 6/7 years earlier and joined in a job for money only. So, I am suffering now. So, don't take a career which you don't like now and will not in future. good luck.

change the way you think, reinvent what you used to do, therefore it will change the output of your habit.

Nice
We have to look for what we express ourselves in all the details of our lives
Thank you for sharing your words with us

I have a similar personal story @amiramnoam.
I really love my job too, but I love being entrepreneur more and building myself smartly after getting enough experience.

To do what you love perfectly, you need:

  • Experience: and you can get from training or learning or from an expert.
  • Patience: wait and give yourself some time to gain results, don't be hurry, because building business or community need some time.

I agree with with you when you said that you moved to Crypto earlier, a Great decision you made.

Because investing in Crypto is this Century opportunity and I believe in the next few years, Crypto will create a full limitless innovative new world with many opportunities everywhere.

Thank you for sharing your story with us, happy to read it :)

Love the way what you do brother..You inspire us to a lot of things be it your artform or be it your write ups .All is inspirational

YEAH, YOLO!

FOR THE first time in history people will say CONGRATULATIONS for leaving jobs !!! 😅

All thanks to steemit 😎

I also left my job for my passion once. It was a struggle after that for 3 years until I found steemit. Congrats to you.

Keep it up
3504A763-EB45-43B6-8B0C-3230AD5CCCE0.png

I took the risk and quit my job and moved to Barbados... scariest move ever but so worthwhile!

We should do What give us inner peace and satisfaction. I think you took the right decision. my friend.

I'm with you, I've been working at jobs I could get at the time, and over the last couple years I have not always been working, but working in a job you do not like only leads to misery. I got my eyes set on a goal that started some time back, and I've been taking small little steps along the way to get there. At some point so, I am going to be joining you, and actually start doing something I love rather than something I must for work.

Haha! We're on the same boat I guess except that I didn't left my job. I actually left school for a while to see if I can have great future here in steemit since I can see great potential with people in this platform. I see lots of intellegent people are here not just to earn but to share what they got as well. I think, with given time, steemit will be the best social media platform on the planet.

I agree, great comment. Just a matter of time! Following you @gvincentjosephm!

Congratulations to you and good luck :-)

I left a job I enjoyed in December and am now working from home too.

At first, it was very unsettling but giving back to the community and helping others is far better that working for money pinching people in my opinion.

I wish you much luck

Right! Make no sense, be sad with all the money in the world.
Don't worry , be happy.

Congratulations, quiting a job you don't love is one of the happiest moments in life. Take that and turn it into inspiration to do great things moving forward!

If you do something that you don't love, you will not be happy, no matter how much you earn. This is the truth.

We need money to live, but we are not living for money.

Great post! I definitely agree with you that everyone should do what makes them happy, or else they will not find inner peace and satisfaction. However, I think it's important that people realize that every job they do will include things they don't enjoy, which is totally okay. By keeping this in mind, it will keep us grounded in what we decide to do and help us work through tough times. :)

I like to teach (apparently I love teaching children and not adults who want to get rich)

I have been teaching in Korea for the past 20 years and wouldn't trade it for all your Steem plus bitcoin although it may be a security to fall back on. I have a lot of fun but teaching in Israeli school might even be better. Although my wife went to graduate school she is happy to serve the church and help the kids. We live off my income as a school teacher and have learned to get by and love each other. That is really important.

Congratulations @amiramnoam.
You did the right thing and I hope you enjoy it for a long time.
If I made a killing in crypto or on Steemit I would continue to live the same life I live today.

Jeh teuh paken lagee nyan?

the right decision to give up world affairs. Have fun @amiramnoam

That's a good thing.Do what you love to do and give it your very best. Whether it's business or baseball, or the theater, or any field. If you don't love what you're doing and you can't give it your best, get out of it.

Great comment, I agree. Following you now @markzuckerbergs

I admire the great decision you made, many times we feel imprisoned developing functions in a job that we do not like and we must have power and determination as well as great "balls" to make that decision you made, you are an example and I congratulate you for it . Coming Soon
I'll take your example.

sounds familiar. wish you all the luck on your new adventure.

My bEst wishes To You...hope you live a happy Life :D

Such an awesome attitude! so glad to hear things are going well x

This is totally true!! I quit a 4 year job as a recruiter, hated it, but found something I love, and sticking with it! :)

You are right! It is better to do what you really love!

everything that has happened is the best choice from the best, so rest assured your decision is right and will produce results later, believe me @amiramnoam

148.png

Great that you have chosen for your own happiness instead of extra $$$!

Good too see you found something you love to do makes life a lot more enjoyable

You're absolutely right! You should definitely make sure that you love what you do! It might not be easy for everyone to find something you really enjoy doing, but in the end that's the most important thing! So whatever you choose, you should be happy with it - at the end of the day you've spent most of the time doing something you don't like if you're not careful in choosing! And that would just be a waste of time and strength! :)

Here here. I was trapped in what I thought was life for years.. working any available job just to get by and leaving hobbies and talents for the evening times and weekend. Is that it I thought???

I suppressed the feeling of what if , and, I want.. for ages. It didn't matter as I was always doing jobs which were credible to humanity.
My heart was content but my soul was not!!

So I finally cracked after all of these years and booked that one-way ticket out of that persistently festering environment.

I now live in Cambodia where I play my guitar every day :)
The weather is nice too ;)
Lovely :)

Good luck.
what you are looking for, you will definitely get.
do not give up @amiramnoam

My work is what i love to Do.

Ahannn so nice..

You wake up wanting to go there.
And when you get back, you can't wait for the next day.
That s what you mean you love your job...

So much love to share,.. and Yes,... with the one who appriciate it everytime

Sometimes we need to change things that are making us sad, if it was your job and you have other dreams to achieve then you did the right thing. Wish you all the best for your future.

Well, according to life I´ve seen it´s quite normal to have this feelings. I´ve also felt them sometimes, but the light in it is that you have found your path in life thanks to it. It´s like you HAVE TO experience all of this to become what you are and what you will be. And nothing compares to find that you passion can affort you life. Smile! you have done it! keep going on!

Friend!!! those stages of sadness can have several reasons. It is a question that you enter into yourself. Working on what you like is phenomenal. Ask yourself: when I'm not doing the work, does the sadness surround me? Work can be an escape ?.

I apologize ... if I did not understand what you were saying. I work with children and adults in personal growth workshops. In the development of the activity I feel like a fish in the water: happy and I give 100% of my. But when I go out (not all the time) sadness and it's because of the environment. We must identify the cause well, we often get involved in the consequences. I hope it allows you to understand what I intend

Tjank you so much for giving an inspiration to live our lives according to our passion. There is no doubt when passion becomes profession none can beat you :-)

Congratulations!
I left my job as well since last year.
And never look back :)
Life is short.. Do what you love..

I had a bad job before I meet steem , I didnt had any leisure time and life was so hard but after meeting with steemit I think I find my home I quit my job and now Im a full time steemian. Dolce vita.

Satisfaction is not with salary and money. if you help some needy person and saw happiness on his face there is no such satisfaction is life. you are great persona may you live long and happy with your wife and children @amiramnoam

i hope u haven’t shed a tear for ur job.... lol

great bro i also dont like job and want to live life happily 😊 and want to do what i love .

very good post,@amiramnoam

Good look

Do what u like..dont do wat u dont....watever you do must excites and keep you pumped...👍

You left job and i'm looking for job

I wrote a post about a month ago about being a raft in the ocean of life. Am glad you decided to be the captain of your own ship and step up to steer it in the direction wish you desire. It's not going to be easy at times but if you hold on you will get there.

Excelente trabajo, me gusto mucho el post.

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

oww thats cool,hope you never repent on your decision :)

every path have a good and bad things, isn't it ?

Hello Sir,
I'm very much confused and do not how should I grow on Steemit. I'm about to leave it but still want to give it a try and for that I need support from people like you. Please guide me how should I proceed what should I do to get upvotes and for enlarging my circle like you.

This is for you buddy!

I'm so so happy for you Bro. All thanks to crypto...and thanks to my baby boy that introduced this lovely platform to me. I'm so loving it. e Steemit has come to stay and rule.

Good job, or at least leaving your job is a good thing. I wish I could leave my job and follow my passion, but I can't. I sitting at my job right now writing that I wish I could leave my job. How ironic. My passion is writing and I think I do it well. the problem is nobody else does.

Well anyway i wish you good luck and success to you my friend!

You made the right decision! You are awesome!

Congratulations we are happy for your excitement. But there are some people who don't have a jobs. who's need job. But they don't have. Actually those people know the importance of job. We are thinking about those people. Thanks

Kol Hakavod.
Happiness is more important than money.
I wish you the best of success.

It is wonderful that you can do what you really love and I congratulate you for having rid of a job that did not give you pleasure .. when you do what we like, we do it with enthusiasm and motivation .. luck.

I look forward to celebrating a similar decision in the future. Congratulations on becoming free to do what you like!

Yes i agree with you because if we didn't like anything that we are doing then their is no point to keep that thing continue because financially satisfaction is not everything.

And i also like that you like to teach Childrens not adults because of their less desire of learning and great attraction is only earning quick cash.

Yes, it doesn't matter if the money is big, if you do what you don't love, there's definitely no way you're going to enjoy your life. It's important to find your passion and make money with that!

Good Vibes Only.

sometimes you need to back yourself to achieve something
if you love what you are doing you are already successfull

Great new attitude! Thanks for sharing as there are so many that need to know happiness and a smile are SO important.

I'm glad for you @amiramnoam. You should do what ever you love to do. There is absolutely no point of doing something you didn't like. Life is short so just enjoy it.

When I read YOUR POST I felt like I wanna Hug you and tell you: Congratulations
confetti-congratulations-white-1-72-.jpg

Best thing you could ever do. Working something you dislike for money is slow torture of the soul.

I quit my 9-5 two years ago without any cash in the bank and had to hustle like a madman.

Today I am more self-reliant than ever and it feels great to not have to work in this braindead working environment anymore.

This is right, we do need to stay for the things we don't love. It will only stress you and you cannot grow.

amazing post @amiramnoam.
thanks for sharing.

כסף לא מביא אושר, אם אתה לא עובד בעבודה שאתה אוהב או אם אתה בכללי מתעסק בדברים שאתה לא אוהב לעשות - אתה תהיה אומלל ויהיה לך קשה להרים את עצמך מהמיטה, אפילו אם אתה מרוויח המון כסף
אם אתה עושה משהו שאתה אוהב ולא מרוויח כמו שיכלת להרוויח - אתה תקום מהמיטה מאושר ותהנה בכל יום.
כסף זה אכן דבר חשוב בשביל לחיות, אבל אין דבר יותר חשוב מהאושר הנפשי

אני שמח בשבילך שאתה עושה משהו שאתה אוהב, זה כל כך חשוב!

Nice Post. I left my office job in 2009 and never looked back. Now I have my own watersports business, I travel extensively and in the last few weeks have become passionate about crypto currency.

the freedom and the joy on your face when you do what you love and not what duty forces on you is truly profound.

I have a story somewhat similar. I finished my degree around 2016 and was unemployed for a year, and only managed to get away with being an entrepreneur, and writing different articles for websites. There I got temporary jobs, but I still have not given up on finding one where I'm totally happy and can do my best!
It's like you said, it must be a feeling of enormous freedom. We are all happy for you!

Cheers,

@t-miles

Congratulations for your achievement! Being financially free is a joy, I’m working towards it as well and I hope I will make it like you! :D

Well sir. I totally agree with u. If u don't love what u do u will never flourish in it. Always choose a path for u, that firstly gives u happiness secondly that is is worth ur time. I have also gone through this, I am a doctor by prof but I dint like it so I went to the administrative field. Although I earn very less than I used to earn when I was working as a doc. Want what u love and catch it. @amiramnoam

Congratulations................Viva la vida !!

That's right, choose a job that you like and you will not have to work a day of your life....a round of applause for her (Y)

I left my new job with no money i couldn't be in that room any longer, not worth the commitment as i was never away from work even at home. No freedom at working 6 days a week including evenings also.

GREAT POST AND GOOD LUCK

articles that are very interesting,
a lot of science that we can get it in the article that you created,
hopefully his future better,
continued success

There is something so spiritually gratifying in teaching, educating!

One of my life goals is to make a school where people can learn multiple languages actually! Pursuing your excitement and the things that make your heart flutter make you feel alive, sometimes of course we have to grind and tolerate things we don't necessarily enjoy doing to make ends meet, after all we don't live in a fantasy world where everything is perfect, we also have to be realistic before we save up enough resources to sustain ourselves to go out, ditch that dead-end job and go after our dreams.

All in all, that's the way to go: pursuing your excitement, because passions are sometimes a little bit overrated in my opinion, we have not just one but multiple passions and things we like, and some of them change over time or discover new ones, so for me at least I follow whatever makes me smile from joy and makes the hours fly by and brings financial abundance into my life hahah n.n

I am so glad to read this Noam, I am sure you feel so light with this decision. Anything that gloom you down is not worth, after all its a short life and you need to do what you enjoy the most and not what pays you the most. There are ample of sources to earn money, but there is only one way to happiness and that's your freedom. Glad you took this decision :-) and best wishes for your future endeavors. I am sure something great is awaiting for you :-)

hi sir @amiramnoam i would like to ask you one question.
i am a electrical student right now and a 3rd year student, but i love cooking. but it did not mean that i don't like my course either. can you give me a few tips of what should i do right now?
i hope these comment will reach you

@amiramnoam ...speechless i am!!!! .....what only i can say is.....INSPIRATION INSPIRATION INSPIRATION.... Ur posts are always great

congratulation For leaving the job...😁😁
Now Life is so Free

Do whatever make you happy life are short

Quitting a job you don't like is the best feeling ever, I am with You man, Problem is everyone around, wife, her mather, etc , They always criticize that decision,("You had a good job") they say. "You had good money there" they say. Good luck doing what you love. Work is not just about the money if you like it :)

Good point! Thanks For Sharing!
