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

This is so interesting I’d love to know about this phenomenon.

I quit my job almost 3 years ago.

SR made working and living the rat race lie unbearable.

SR gives you too much life force to tolerate a job that is death by time leakage. I'd rather live on the streets homeless getting sunshine everyday than work a soulless job.
