Your 9 to 5 job? Should you just leave? Just go all in and quit your 9 to 5 and just see what happens.
Get it into your head that today is your last day at that job?
You just don’t turn up tomorrow and stay in bed?
NO NO NO – don’t do that. You’re asking for trouble.
Make A Plan Before Quitting Your 9to 5
If you have a 9 to 5 job and want to quit but need the money you get to survive, don’t just be spontaneous and quit tomorrow.
It took me around 2 years to finally be able to quit my job as an electrician.
I had to aim towards it before actually quitting.
How I managed to quit my 9 to 5 job is all detailed online. You can find all the steps I took on the podcast Break The Chains.
The reason I was able to quit my job was when I earnt over double online in one day then I ever did being an electrician for 20 years.
That was enough for me to say I’m going to do it and go full time online.
Alternative Opportunity’s When Quitting Your 9 to 5.
I saw the opportunity to make more money online then I made fixing peoples wiring with:
Less stress
Bigger customer audience
All done from home
I may have got a little excited and expected to be making millions of pounds in a matter of weeks once I went full time.
This of course didn’t happen.
Although I have a clear plan of how I’m going to get there.
Its just going to take longer than anticipated.
Taking A Risk
All entrepreneurs take a little gamble now and again. It making it work out for you that matters and not giving up half way through.
The more I look back now where I worked my 9 to 5 job and why I took that gamble – it makes so much sense to me.
The huge amount of money I had to invest into jobs, just to be ignored by customers when it came to paying the invoice.
Having to answer emails and calls when on holiday from customers – just to keep the business back at home running.
Not to mention the time the whole of the UK was told to stay at home, how can an electrician make a living if it’s illegal to even leave the house.
The assessments I had to do in order to be approved by the local authorities, being assessed by an person who was less qualified then me!
There were just to many cons against not quitting, to the pros of quitting and starting something new.
Even though the money as an electrician in the UK is very good, it was everything that comes with it.
The hours are not even 9 to 5, they are more like 6-10, 11hr days.
It stresses me out thinking about it now.
