REFLECTION WEEK 4
PURPOSE
This week we learned about purpose.
Points we went over were... What are you good at? What were you born to do? Lastly, Who's going to pay you to do it?
I love photography, videography, editing, social media, coming up with ideas.
I took a photoshop editing job, I had to edit between 300-500 photos a day Monday-Friday and on paper it was a perfect job, it was only a couple hours a day, I worked from home, and the times were very flexible. For a college student who struggled with health problems the job was perfect, But months went by and I started not liking it, I was super fast at my job and my boss loved how the images looked, but it was mind numbing doing the same thing over and over again, and I didn't make that much. When I first started I made more because it took me longer to edit photos. The more I did it the faster I got the less I made.
It was great being able to finish up work faster because I didn't like it, but the trade of was making less.
A couple weeks ago I made the jump to quit and take the entrepreneur route.
With my job it was constant, but consistently bad, there wasn't any moving up in the company it was just that. With taking a jump It might go good, might go bad, but there's a chance that it can be 100xs better than what I was working before.
Another quote I learned this week was "do it or stop talking about it" I talked about quitting for a month, but recently I pulled the trigger.
I'm glad I did, I'm a little nervous cause it's stopping the consistent income, but it's a trade off for something better.
