Many people have dreams of quitting their job and becoming entrepreneurs. But what if you don't have the funds or skills to do so? What should you do? The answer is simple: prepare for it now! Yes, many people will say that they need to save more money before leaving their jobs. Others may be waiting on getting some certification or degree before taking the leap into entrepreneurship. I'm here to tell you that there is no "right" time- any point in your life when you are ready for this change is a good time.


"If you want to be successful, you have to know when to quit." That may sound harsh, but it is a truth that many people learn the hard way. When do you know that your time at a company has come and gone? The Point of No Return is a term that refers to the moment in which you should prepare to quit your job. There are many things that can happen at this point, but it is important to know when it happens so you can be ready for anything.


Let's be honest, we all have that one job that we're just not happy with. The one where we dread going to work every day and the only thing we look forward to is quitting. But when should you actually quit? Is there a point of no return? There's no easy answer to this question, but here are some things to consider before making your decision:

-Do I want more money in my life or do I want less stress?

-What does my significant other think about me leaving my job?

-Is it worth it if I'm not giving 100% effort at work anymore?

-You're bored with your current role and want to try something new

-You feel that you've risen up through the ranks as far as you can go within your company

- Your boss is making you miserable


The point of no return is a phrase that means the point at which it becomes too difficult or expensive to do something. The decision to quit your job will be one of the most important decisions you'll make in your lifetime, and if you're contemplating quitting, then you should know when to prepare yourself for making this decision.
