Leap of Faith

Today I effectively 'quit' my job.  This is weird to say because I work in our family business.  How do you quit your family business?  Well if you no longer feel you're a fit, then you just make the decision to do it.  Oh yeah like it was that easy. It's taken me a long time to make the break.  A few months ago I went part-time (30 hours/week) but that was just an interim step.  I knew I needed to do this but its so much safer to stay.  I mean a guaranteed paycheck, health insurance and other benefits of being in a family business...not so easy to give up.

I don't have another 'job' to go to.  I don't want to work for someone else.  Its time for me to figure out my path.

Now I'll have more time to finish my pilates certification and focus my energy on what I really want to do when I grow up.

Its time to take a leap of faith...and just hope the net will appear.
