10 Reasons To Quit Your Job

The Thirteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution officially abolished and continues to prohibit slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. It was passed by the Senate on April 8, 1864, passed by the House on January 31, 1865, and adopted on December 6, 1865.

Lets look at the tenants of slavery.

  • Little or no freedom, free time, or fulfillment (not much fun)
  • Perform unpleasant tasks for the master or be chastised
  • Compensation based on value to the master not determined BY the master
  • Minimal control over schedule or workload
Aside from the most glaring and obvious difference, CHOICE, there is really not a lot of difference between slavery and working a job. Both are equally unfulfilling (research shows up to 90% of corporate America comes home from their job feeling unfulfilled.)

So then, why do millions of people choose to stay stuck in an occupation that they don't like? Why would someone in their right mind choose to subject themselves to turmoil and bull shit of answering to a master. We are not dogs! We are eagles that are designed by the Almighty to flourish and soar!

To me the only thing more pathetic than the millions of people who still actually do live in slavery in third world countries and such, with the foot of oppression on their necks and their faces in the mud, are the millions of people who live in freedom, yet choose to lie there with their faces in the mud regardless of the fact that there is no foot of oppression!

So, why do people choose to work for someone else?

Here are 10 reasons:
  1. They are ignorant to the fact that they already have 99% of what is required to become an entrepreneur. They think they need a lot of time, money, education, or other circumstances
  2. They grew up in a "normal" home where working for a master is considered "normal."
  3. They don't think that they are special or they don't have anything unique to offer the world (this is obviously bullshit)
  4. They lack the circle of influence and thus lack motivation or inspiration (Maybe they stopped dreaming so long ago that they are now on auto pilot and don't even realize that they live in a box)
  5. Their degree, which no doubt was awesome and expensive, is something they decided on as a teenager... or worse yet was decided by their parents and now they feel obligated to do something with it
  6. They are led to believe that their master cares about them (this is obviously BS as well. Your boss doesn't give two farts about you and don't think for a second your job wouldn't be outsourced to India if it could be; you're in denial
  7. They have bills to pay and a mortgage. (I say sell the house, simplify your life, downsize and stop trying to keep up with the Jones'. I just bought a house and it’s a pain in the neck and a huge hassle. Who needs that?
  8. They have to put their kids through college. My kids will never work for anyone else or I will die. That’s why I won't be sending them to college--that way they will be forced to become an entrepreneur!
  9. They enjoy their job (entirely possible I suppose, but I highly doubt it)
  10. They don't know their options! They have yet to learn about PRO!
In fact, this last point, is why I am sending you this email. My personal mission in life is to WAKE people UP to the choices that EVERY individual has so that they can live the life of their dreams. Now! In real-time. In THIS lifetime.

It’s time to quit your job and hire yourself folks. Not someday. Today.

Get baptized in the river of failure so you can blossom in entrepreneurial blessings. That’s what this is about... Don’t let fear keep you safe and in your comfort zone. have some faith in yourself and jump off the ledge. You will surprise yourself. I did.

How badly do you want it? Can you taste it? Can you feel it? Are you ready? It’s GO TIME! JUMP!

If you believe every individual has the choice to change their circumstances, share this article with your PRO leads and applicants!

Happy Cinco de Mayo,

Jay

(Jay's Full Bio: EvanCarmichael.com/jaykubassek)  

In six short years, Canadian entrepreneur Jay Kubassek went from working on a farm to selling mufflers at a Kansas City Midas shop to revolutionizing home-based entrepreneurialism with the 2004 launch of his Internet-based education company CarbonCopyPRO and the PRO family of companies.

With little more than an 8th grade education and no start-up capital, the odds were stacked against him. But Jay has proven that business success and financial freedom can be achieved by virtually anyone who wants it badly enough, provided they are willing to earn it and the entrepreneurial spark is still there.

Re: What to do at the first roadblock? Re: What to do at the first roadblock? - Quit! JK. You need to make a serious decision about what you plan to do and if you can handle the competition. Personally, I like less competitive niches because it typically means success is slightly more guaranteed, as long as you are sure there is a demand. I would rather pick a niche and dominate it rather than rally it out with the big boys. For example, what if your idea is to start a new search engine? Unless you have some amazing revolutionary new idea, forget it. What about if you wanted to start an online social network just like facebook? Again, your idea won't go anywhere unless you have an amazing revolutionary idea or something.
Re: Don't Quit. Re: Don't Quit. - Thanks for the post Don't Quit is a great message even when the mother-in-law says "why don't you get a real job" The lonely entrepreneur sound like an interesting email or thought. Was never lonely at the beginning, to excited about the challenges and busy learning new things. but as time progressed, it can get boring looking at Forex charts, research and writing. Now my social business networking and forums easily remove any thoughts of loneliness. Now, sometimes look forward to some quiet times As to mastermind groups; perhaps when I grow up I will be invited - smiles
Tactics for Blog Traffic Tactics for Blog Traffic - Blogging; if you know how to do it right, can be a great experience. Unfortunately the majority of people getting online to begin blogging fall into the common frustration of seeing low traffic numbers when they check their stats. Why is this the case? Ultimately it is because getting traffic to a blog is a science, like many other strategies implemented in marketing products and services. There are four ways that can help in achieving more traffic at a quicker rate. Two of the ways to produce an abundant traffic stream consists of writing and promoting your subject and/or niche in other sites, and another strategy to reeling in this traffic is a traditional business tactic in attaining a base of customers; or in regards to blogs, followers. 1.) Write Captivating Articles - Article marketing is one of the best ways to attain traffic as it is almost always free and can allow a marketer to express their interests in any desired niche. If you submit articles to directories you are not only getting a steady stream of readers, but you are also building backlinks to your blog site. An example is EzineArticles.com, as it is has its own readership of people looking for topics that you may just be blogging about. Therefore, if you write an article and submit it to a directory a person will not only read your article but also be enticed to visit your blog. 2.) Reasons to Re-Visit- Giving people a reason to go back is seen all throughout commercial businesses. For example, stores and restaurants will hold special sales, events, and offers to keep customers coming back for more of what they love; but this time with a lower price or ???buy one get one free??? offer. This exact formula can also be replicated in your blogging techniques. The idea to keep people coming back over and over can be lucrative and the best way to do this is to create special events and offers. For example, you can give away a new prize each week to new subscribers to your list. In addition, you can also run contests for people who leave comments on your blog posts. In short, making your blog ???a place to be??? will attract more people as your subscribers may even tell their friends. 3.) Doing Keyword Research- Rather than throwing up blogs and expecting traffic it would be wiser to research the keyword data to find terms that are getting a lot of searches. In addition, attaining keywords that have low competition would be a greater choice as it will make your blog easier to rank. 4.) Link Baiting- The idea behind creating link baits is stirring enough controversy through your post that you can produce strong emotional reactions by people in order for them to comment and link to your blog post. For example, if a hot new electronic product; like the iPad, just recently came out on the market and everyone is raving about it, you can explain why you don???t like it to your readers in a way that will give you strong emotional responses automatically. In short, these are four ways that can be solid; if used appropriately, in bringing in more traffic and attaining a base of avid readers.
