Be free! Don’t trap yourself there. One door closes, another opens. I understand you’re comfortable where you were but you weren’t happy so you need to go. You may be anxious of the unknown, but you’ll be okay.

How come? Do you have freelance projects lined up? New job? There is a reason why you are putting in your notice.

Do you have your goals planned out?

In support of what CD1 said, sometimes a new job is just a way out of an old job that wasn’t working out. And the job after that is the actual job you want. Just don’t stay at the middle job for too long.

It will probably be great! And even if it isn’t, the worst case is you find a new job you like more! Sometimes it helps me to think what the actual worst case scenario is, if it’s even likely, and how I would deal with it

I'm relieved to say that just 4 days in to my new job and it was absolutely the right choice 💖

Here is an insight for you all today—key elements to living life with purpose.

Finding purpose in your life changes the way you think, behave, and communicate with others. You lose track of time because you are too busy enjoying what you have at the moment.

To find purpose in your life requires three key elements:

1) Presence
2) Values
3) Challenges

Without these three elements, you can never feel fulfilled and live life with a purpose.

Found a random engagement ring.

Hi all, so I found a platinum ring (which I assumed it's an engagement ring as it has dates and initials engraved on top.) And a Divvy tag (I have no idea what it was until I googled it. Apparently it's a bike sharing service in Chicago) in a briefcase I ordered online. I was thinking of returning the item back to the store but that wouldn't help the person who lost the ring. Attached is a picture of them.

What should I do now?

I left my job without having anything else lined up otherwise I would have had a mental breakdown. I’m not even in that great of a financial place, but it was my job or my sanity. I know at least three other people who, in the past few months, have left with nothing lined up. I feel like it’s something we need to be talking more about. This isn’t normal for people to be doing this right?
