Bye Bye. Fly Fly. The art of Leaving
Winners do quit. But rather than seeing leaving as a failure, they turn their energy to the next venture… and the next, and the next. Sometimes quitting is good. It’s really important,” says Eric Barker, author of ‘Barking Up the Wrong Tree’. “There are only 24 hours in a day. If you never quit anything, you’re going to have less time for the things that really matter.”
Research shows that, sometimes, walking away from a job, relationship or even a dream can make you happier, healthier and more successful.
You may be working towards the wrong goals to begin with. Even if an ambition was once a good fit, it might not be later. After all, if we never gave up on anything we’d all still be in our first jobs and wearing nappies.
