Sometimes getting a new job is no longer the answer. We jump at the point in our lives when a job no longer satisfies us. Working for someone else doesn’t work any longer. It’s as if we have outgrown working for someone else. This is a challenging realization and one that almost every entrepreneur comes to admit. We want more, but how do we know for sure? How do we even contemplate leaving the workforce? Here are 6 signs to let you know that you’re moving on, maybe not today, or tomorrow, but sometime in the future, you will be ready. You have a yearning that won’t leave. In my small business seminars I have asked participants, how many of you have had a yearning? Almost all would raise their hands.
You dream about being a business owner. You might even have told friends or family about your business ideas. Sometimes you see your idea is now a business that someone else is running. You are working for the paycheck? This is another tell-tale sign that the money is not enough. When we get to the point that the paycheck is the main reason we are working, we are getting close to the realization that this job, and perhaps any job, is no longer the answer. You don’t know what business you would start, even if you started one. This is very common and is one of the main reasons people don’t leave their job. What I suggest is that you start an idea. Once you open yourself to your ideas, they will continue to flow to you. It doesn’t seem to matter how good a job is, how nice your office is or how big the paycheck is, sooner or later you get that feeling this isn’t it.
