SO I DID A THING TODAY!!!

[Stephen Dickey]

So I did a thing today. I quit my 9-5 job on the spot, no warning. No back up plan. And no money (well, I have $60 bucks). Now, before you call me crazy, hear me out. The job sucked. It was the most stressful, mind numbing work i have ever done, as i struggled to find one single aspect of the job i enjoyed doing. Not only that, but it all my coworkers hate their job as well so it is a continuous cesspool of negative energy. I could not spend another minute having my soul sucked away. I tried to enjoy the work, but to no avail. It was so far from my dreams, goals, and vision.

With that being said, I am part owner of an LLC who specializes in revitalizing distressed properties. We have been in business since 2015. We have successfully completed six flips, and have two more houses on the market. The reason I left my job is to put 100% focus into this business, as we are undergoing some changes right now and really need to focus to get where we need to be and reach our goals. The only problem is I have been working things on the back end of the business from my office, for which i was confined to for 10 hours a day, five days a week. Therefore, I am not quite sure where to start.

Lucky for me, my business partner has been a godsend through my recent struggles, and we have investors lined up to fund our deals, but we have no product to provide them. SO it is time to grind, grind, grind. Also, I feel so ALIVE since leaving, and I am truly excited (and nervous) about things to come. But hey, it's part of the journey right?

I just wanted to reach out and get some of my thoughts and feelings off of my chest and let you all know that as scary as ripping away the safety cord may be, I am 100% committed to finding a way to creating the life of my dreams through real estate. 

Does anyone have any similar experience with my current situation, and if so, how did you handle it? What actions did you take? I would love to hear some war stories, as any positive feedback, lessons i can gain from others would be truly valuable to my upcoming journey. As for me, for the first time in a long time I feel excited, and that is worth the process all in itself. I'll be back to give you the summary!
