In today’s show we consider what you should do before quitting your day job.

But first, I cover the basic premise of the company of one mentality. You own it.  Take responsibility for your career!

Then I review the Platform Conference. More on Platform can be found at michaelhyatt.com

Lastly, we consider the question of when to quit your day job. The basic points covered are as follows:

  1. Run to something instead of from something
  2. Find your calling and let it be the path you run toward.
  3. Learn what it is that you do and how it impacts others. This alone should drive you.

 Question:  What am I missing that you have found are critical steps to take before quitting your day job?

You keep looking at possibilities.

You watch videos, read books, attend workshops, and talk with friends about what you could do.

But nothing really changes.

I think one reason is simple: There’s no urgency.
