I quit my job yesterday.
Some of you might be wondering, why would anyone quit their job in this economy? I mean, after all, they were paying me. And yes, they were,though not much, to be honest. But money wasn’t really the issue. I quit for a reason that might sound strange to some people: I was being underutilized.
When I told one of my friends about it, his reaction said it all. He said, “Wow, I’ve never heard anyone say they’re quitting because they’re underutilized.” He had heard of people quitting because they were tired, frustrated, or underpaid but never because they simply weren’t given enough to do. But that’s exactly what happened to me.
Now, let’s talk about underutilization. It’s one of those silent things that can drain you without you even realizing it. I’m someone who knows my worth. I know what I’m capable of, and I love putting my skills to work. The reason I got a job in the first place was because I can’t stand being idle; I like being useful. But imagine going to work every day and still feeling idle. Imagine sitting in front of your laptop for hours with absolutely nothing to do. It sounds like peace, but trust me, it’s not. It messes with your mind.
There were days I just sat there, staring blankly at my screen, wondering why I was even there. It wasn’t just mentally exhausting, it was also financially draining. I was spending money on transport and lunch just to go sit and do nothing. It didn’t make sense anymore. So, I decided to choose myself. I quit.
And honestly? I feel free.
I know something big is coming. Right now, I’m exploring the Web3 space, something I’ve been curious about for a while. It’s new, it’s evolving, and I can already see that it holds opportunities for people who are willing to learn and adapt.
If there’s one thing I’ve learned from this experience, it’s this:
Know your worth. Never stay somewhere that doesn’t challenge you or help you grow.
Listen to yourself. When something doesn’t feel right, it’s probably not.
Be brave enough to start again. Quitting isn’t failure, sometimes it’s the reset you need.
Leaving my job wasn’t an easy decision, but it was the right one. Because at the end of the day, peace of mind and growth matter.
If you read till the end, I love youu & Have a wonderful night
