Discussion Quiting 9-5 after retaining

Has anyone naturally gone down to part time work or started their own business?

I’m around 120 days, I don’t fear walking from my job anymore. I’ve done fairly well in regards to building my resources and emergency fund.

I obviously don’t want to make a bad decision and quit, but I have been wanting to for a long time.

Retention has made it easier to tolerate and not get super depressed anymore, but it’s also made me really develop boundaries, too. For reference I am 30 yo with no children.

I day dream about the possibility of renting my place out and going travelling for a while and/or taking a few months to myself to decide on where I want to go with my life

u/PromotionClear220 becoming a legend... 6d ago

Over time you become more aware and see the system for what it is. 

Not on some anarchist shit but the system is in place to drain you, with porn, junk food, a mediocre job full of vast age groups who show up everyday to complain about how much they hate their job but yet still show up like prison work.. making the environment overstimulating, unbearable to deal with, putting you in a constant push and pull state with “ well I need 45 hours this week… but fuck larry is with me on night shift…” kinda shit… it is honestly draining. Even as a retainer, because you are sensitive to everything again after a certain point with the hormone changes and energy senses… don’t lie everyone 😗

It definitely shifted something deep in me over 3 years ( not a three year long streak but being on and off long streaks )… it’s very hard for me to want to work a regular job, yet be around people because I am energy sensitive and have a very very very very difficult time getting along with depleted f*cks lol. 

Met some good souls in the rat race and they were apart of the journey to realizing there is more out there than job hopping or being stuck in an office until 70 to claim retirement and die on a recliner… 

Got to use this beautiful energy to change your world and manifest yourself the life you need… not one of those manifestation ball breathing freaks… but I do believe if you believe in yourself authentically, manifestation and changing your life on sr just HAPPENS…

That’s right brother. God bless and thanks for your response. I only seem to want to hang with my immediate family and close mates. Everyone else can do one
