....phew!! yes! escaped!!....
I will be officially out of the rat race from 23rd Oct 2010.... yey!!
This is super fun! Amazing to say the least, as this was no ordinary feat for me to have the courage to leave a well paying job and just sit at home. And, no, I am not quitting because I am pregnant or because of any health complications. I just decided that I need a well deserved break after 13 years of slaving for the world. It does not mean that I am quitting work forever, it's just the right thing for me to do at this point of time.
I amazed myself. I was so ready to let go of my commissions including one recent 3 year project at a turnover of 18mio. My colleagues called me an idiot. They thought that I was insane to not reap the rewards first before I leave. But, another 3 years? That's too long!
Perhaps the 40 days prayer and fasting did give me the courage and peace to just let go of things. I really believe if it wasn't for this season of prayer for breakthroughs, I will be agonizing every minute of the day on the fact that I am loosing those substantial commissions, my year end bonus, career progression, blah blah... Well the longer I hold on, the tougher for me to let go and move on.
Ah, staying at home and finally doing the things that I like.... such bliss! But, can I really survive the "boredom" that many has cautioned me? I don't know. Seriously. I am just taking one step at a time to enjoy this new phase of my life. Come what may, I will embrace them with a new found gusto.
