I resigned from my job! While I’m now scared and nervous, it feels good that I have finally done it. Therefore, I’m happy about this week.
Recap: What has happened this week?
Well, as the title already says, this week has been crazy. Crazy, because I finally decided to quit my job. For almost a year already, I have thoughts about quitting, especially after one of my most loved colleague has left the company earlier this year. This week on Wednesday, I finally gave my letter of resignation to my boss. I wrote about it in the last post, “It’s time for the next chapter …”.
Besides that, the week has been average. During my working hours, I’m mostly bored. After work, though, I’m very motivated to work on my stuff.
Reflection: How did I do this week?
After not feeling good in my job (I do not have any motivation to continue working there), I’m pleased that I finally took this step. Therefore, I can say that I’m very proud of myself. I did, what I should have done months ago. Although, now I feel terrified and nervous about the upcoming time. At the same time, I’m also very motivated and really excited about what’s next.
Gratitude: What am I grateful for?
I’m grateful for finally taking the risk of quitting. While I was struggling with this decision for roughly a year already, I overcame my fear this week. Besides that, what made me happy is being in contact again with someone I know from playing ice hockey many years ago.
Challenges: What was my greatest challenge this week?
The main challenge obviously has been overcoming my fear of resigning from my job. I think I wrote enough about it. Other than that, my challenges have been around working on my own business. I mean, there’s a month left, to have a good enough income, to support myself. I feel like, I’m not doing enough. Overcoming this will also be the main challenge in the upcoming weeks.
Learnings: What did I learn?
It’s difficult to say what has been a learning this week. Of course, quitting a job also comes with learning. However, none of it is new. I’ve been there before. I have to put more effort into my own business, though, especially in marketing myself.
Action: What are my 1 to 2 main goals this week?
For the upcoming week, my main goal will be to do my job as good as I can. While I’m not looking forward to it, I want to leave in the best way possible. My other goal is working on my own business, especially on how I can get the word out there, that I’m back in business.
