5 step process to leave a job you hate.

 

Received a question on TIkTok from:

 

A Data analyst with 5 months left with their current job, which they do not enjoy. They wanted to know what to do.

 

In this video I provide a 5 stage process on how to quit your job.

 

One of the first signs you should quit your job is if you hate it/don't like it - but it's not wise to just do it.

 

You need to time and plan when to leave a job.

 

The 5 steps mentioned in the video:

 

1. Take pressure off - you do not have to have things figured out.

 

2. Save - have savings for when you no longer have a job so you're not worried about income

 

3. Find another income source. You might not like the job, but it doesn't matter. You don't want the pressure of needing an income when you're building something.

 

4. Why you should use social media - it's your ticket out of a job you hate.

 

5. General ideas on what to build on social media for this specific individual - lessons which can be applied to anyone.

This is the Minotaur Mela.

 

A mela is an Asian festival where there is a stage with music, there's food, market stalls, fun fair rides, and even in the evening: fights. In other words - anything goes.

 

And that's the concept behind the Minotaur Mela. There is no theme.

 

There is no topic.

 

Whatever happens, will happen.

 

In this episode we discuss the racism between Pakistanis and Indians.

 

We touch upon why Pakistanis and Indians hate each other.

 

As well as the different cultures within these cultures.

 

Towards the end we discuss the impact of social media.

In this Z-Vlog I talk about my birthday and being in the best shape of my life.

 

I also talk about the importance of Tribe.

 

Namely, the AJAC Tribe which has been instrumental in my current development.

On this episode of The Z-Vlog (short for Zulfeh-Vlog) - I talk about the first step everyone misses doing when starting a new business or venture.

 

It's the planning stage but with a twist - and something i've not done many times before, which meant the business ventures failed.

 

I'm now documenting my process in public as I go through building a new business from scratch.

 

This is the first step I did, and which I recommend others do.

 

It's about undoing the conditioning and programming of society first. And then reprogramming yourself with a new vision.

 

You need to have an ideal vision of yourself, who you want to become, what kind of life you actually want to live, and how much do you actually need to make it happen.

 

In other words, you don't need to have a big dream, you just need to make sure the dream is your own, and not one conditioned into you by society or someone else.

 

After that, you make a list of all your skills, experiences, hobbies, interests, challenges and weaknesses.

 

By doing this, it makes it easier for you to identify what kind of new business model you want, where your strengths lie, what skills can be transferred, and what you need to improve upon.

 

I did this exercise to determine the foundational steps of my new project.

 

Episode discusses more in detail.

When you really want to achieve something...

 

...you're gona have to make sacrifices, choices & compromises.

 

It's not always the big things.

 

Sometimes it's the little compromises here and there which start to tot up, and can create frustration.

 

For example, today I had to choose between going to the barbers and preparing for a big day tomorrow, going to a birthday party in the evening and a family wedding in the day or...

 

...going to the gym for the 17th day in a row. I chose the latter.

 

Achieving my goal of 100 days straight at the gym is more important than a fresh cut for the wedding - despite the Mrs being annoyed.

 

What are some of the choices, compromises and sacrifices you've had to make/are making to achieve your goals?!

 

Or do you cave in any at the first excuse presented?
