When You Think You have to quit

The question "where do you see yourself in 3-5 years ?" has a common answer atleast from the IT industry based out in India.

If ranked on majority

1. I will quit the job & do farming/agriculture *.

2. I will quit the job & follow a spiritual route, some people dont even dare from mentioning meditation , freedom from all *.

3. I will quit the job & join politics *.

and most of them implies that they all are very keen of quitting job.

Some of the answers you dont even find are

1. Switching Jobs/Company/Role

2. Starting a company/venture [not at all]

3. Joining a non profit Organization for social-economic freedom/developments.

The quitting answers has a secret * mark , which means. .

" * Has to have enough earnings "

,can be read as a clause.

Most of us are waiting for the moment when we feel that we have enough savings. And the universal truth is there is no limit for earnings / investment limit. Most of us like to live our life with denial . A denial that my mind is satisfied , a denial that my family , relatives , friends ,people around me are happy, that I am capable for only this .

There are lots of factors however which do effect out decisions, especially out bonds , relationships, friendships , even strangers all play a role . Society has been given the thread the moment we were given life , to take care , to direct.

You will get surprised on hearing one of my friends insight. He is a person , who always mention that he want to quit job and follow spiritualism/meditation , break all relationships, no marriages. But on contrary , his talks always are concentrated in Money. Like why cannot you invest in properties , why cant you stay back and earn money rather than quitting , and so on. Why should buy a mobile like n97/iphone if you have 3300,1100. Always mention the ways in which he saved money. But both ends dont meet atleast for a second / inch.

I believe you might also have met so many friends likes this or you might be the one.

I always used to wonder how the paradox happens. Our innerquest is to make money , but as a mask we take name of religion & relationships.

Some people would like to remain in the same web / matrix meant for them , even though they know the is not the right way. However there are few who later made the decision and changed the way thousands live , lakhs of us earn . Infosys , Reliance ,Microsoft are examples.

Even though we are bored of our jobs , we still continue doing the same mistake.

So when you are thinking of quitting ?
