Why I left a high-paying job to start my online business?

Hi,

One of the things I do before making any big decision in life is what I call Future Pacing.

I ask myself realistically where will I be in 6 months, 12 months, 3 years, and then 5 years if I continue on the path that I am on today?

And if my current path excites me, I double down on it.

But if it starts to feel mundane and boring, I immediately start designing a different path from myself that thrills me.

Today, I want you to do a bit of Future Pacing as well.

Maybe right now you are in college or stuck at a job for a few years.

Take a moment and realistically look at where will you be in 6 months… then 12 months… then 3 years… and then 5 years.

To make it easy for yourself, think of someone who is in your family, friends, or your current company who is 3-5 years ahead of you in life.

Imagine living their life.

Think of what is the work they are doing and how they are living.
 

IS THAT MAKING YOU EXCITED?

Are you going like, “HELL YEAH! I can’t wait to reach that stage and live that life!”

Are their lives inspiring for you?

If the answer to your questions above is a “HELL YES” then you are set. You should continue on the path.

But if that future de-energizes you and demotivates you, it is time to pause and reflect.

I was working at a very high-paying corporate job in Singapore in 2016. I was one of the highest-paid employees in my department.

And yet, when I did Future Pacing and saw my life 5 years ahead, with even more income, a bigger house, and better gadgets, I became extremely unhappy.

Because I saw myself giving away my youth years living according to someone else’s life goals for 11.5 months a year, 9-5 every day!
 

If this is your reality, it is time to change course.
 

If the idea of being your own boss excites you, then it is time to start building your own business.

If the idea of waking up without an alarm and working from exotic beaches and vintage cafes around the world excites you, then it is time to start crafting your own location-independent laptop lifestyle.

And finally…

If being an inspiration for yourself and other people in your community excites you, then it is time to follow your heart.

You have to DECIDE to bet on yourself.
