3 things I learned after quitting my job
It’s been over a year since I quit my daily job where I worked 7.5 years in the 8-16 framework and in the first year of “freedom” I learned something 🙂
The amount of freedom equals the amount of discipline
I remember the first morning when I was not supposed to get up at 5:40 to get to work at 8. I woke up somewhere around 7 and it was so weird. Is this really real? I don’t have to go anywhere?
Do I now choose what to do and when? Wait, am I reponsible for myself?
Yes, that was it. It was a shock in some way because I’m no longer part of that world. I entered into a completely different world – the world of discipline.
I need to have enough discipline and set myself to do everything I want to make my brand progress and keep this freedom.
Because I have freedom to do something because I want to do it, not because I have to do it.
Freedom is ensured by discipline.

There is no weekend and work week
This is what I liked most of all. There is no longer that hate Monday and joy because Friday is here and I can rest for two days and on Sunday I am nervous for Monday.
I do things because I want to work, regardless of whether it is Monday or Saturday. It often happens that I do not even know what day it was, which usually only happened to me at seaside vacation.
There is no better feeling than sitting on Sunday in the early morning and with the twittering of birds and a cup of good tea creating new content for Different or working on my TV series.
No matter what day it is.
Entrepreneur works the most, but is not getting tired
This is my greatest discovery of everything. One of the bigger challenges was to explain to people out of this world that this is my whole life and that I was devoted to 0-24, and that it does not makes me feel tired, does not makes me feel nervous and does not create stress.
A terrible difference compared to the classic 8-16 when it comes to the daily job we do because we have to, not because we want it.
Imagine doing something 0-24 because you want it, not because you have to. I’ve never heard anyone get tired of doing something he wants. The main advantage of this is that I do things because I want to and when I want to. For example, this article was written while I was waiting in line at the haircut saloon.
Things are good because I made them like that.
