One Year Later | I QUIT My 9-5 Job and it was the BEST Decision Ever

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

It’s officially been 1 year since I quit my 9-5 corporate engineering job!
Today I will talking about how much money I’m making now, how my mental health is, what I do for work now, and so much more, one year after quitting my 9-5 job.
This is one of the most positive post quitting my 9-5 job updates I’ve given so I hope you can celebrate with me!

    PAIGE, I watch you at work & you’ve really helped me with my decision to QUIT. I’m taking a year sabbatical and I want to do ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I want to get back to MYSELF. I want to work on my health. I’m working out w/ a personal trainer, I want to work on my SELF CARE, my mental health, & I want to explore my outside of NURSING. (I live in Tampa, florida 😍😍) and I want to take this next year off and truly get back to myself. THANK YOU FOR INSPIRING US!! Thank you! My last day at work is 12/29/2022 ❤️

    @@CaptainFatfuk hey! It’s been actually amazing!! Life still happens whether you’re at work or on a break. My mental health has improved sooo much & I’ve learned sooo much about myself. I used to be a huge ppl pleaser, now the only person I wanna please and LOVE ON UNCONDITIONALLY IS MYSELF. If you can afford it, PLEASE TAKE OFF WORK & rest your mind & body… are you taking a sabbatical?

    if you think about it not taking risk is not really a life worth living. i left a job i thought i liked but i couldnt figured out why i hated it so much. it was the culture became too toxic. i left for a job i thought i might like and realized i dont belong there lol. then i came back to the same job BUT different company. im very happy. haha i accepted i hated my major but its given me some knowledge i can use

    Paige - First of all I want to say that I love your videos and I stumbled upon them as I am in the same situation you were where I want to quit my 9-5 Engineering Corporate job. I want to come back to Orlando, Florida to be able to finally settle down with my fiancé and continue my life around the people who love me (my family). I would love to get some couching as I really don't know where to start from. Hope I can get in contact with you and be an inspiration to others who are in this situation.

    This is my main concern about going to college and finishing a degree that I would end up not using. I hope you're doing better in terms of where you are right now, good things will come at the right time.

    My biggest suggestion would be to only go to college when there’s something you actually want to go for.. my only regret is going because it felt like I had to and was expected of me. Even though in the end I don’t regret going or my degree!

    Quiet quitters are great for corporate. they roll over and let those who have skill and talent rise up. Keep quitting. It's a fulfilling mindset. It will pay off in the long haul. 🤣😂
