I Quit My Job & Went All In On My Dreams - Here's What Happened

[@toothpaste_tm7323]

Moved to a smaller city and decided to go into master gardening education. Will have less pay than in my office job but life satisfaction feels much better now :)

[@SunnyKindJourney]

That's lovely ❤️

I've been a fulltime Content Creator (KZbin, TikTok, and Instagram) for three to four years now! I'm super proud of your courage to invest in your passion, and you're doing a GREAT job! Consistency is literally THE KEY. I love your content, & it is so valuable to so many people. :) FORZA! ce la fai

[@Carole616]

You are young and are making sound and intelligent choices for your life and learning from your mistakes along the way. I wish I had had your mindset when I was your age. Also, I am happy your lifestyle is friendly to the planet. Our Earth needs all the help it can get.

[@SunnyKindJourney]

100% agree with the planet-friendly actions. It's important and one of the reasons why I am a minimalist. Thank you for your kind words! 🌱🤗

[@francescocanigiula5178]

Your channel is a true inspiration for me. I really love your communication style and, overall, I really like the person you are and the values you share. Please keep going. I wish you so much strength and happiness!

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Thank you so much 😊

[@dorothyv8606]

I came across your channel today and love the message you are sharing !

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Thank you so much!

I like watching this game reviewer SomecallmeJohnny. I think most creators with over 100k subscribers like him use patreon and affiliate/product links to make money from KZbin so maybe you could do that eventually. I believe it also takes time to build an audience so it may take a few years before getting "i can live on this now and just do KZbin" amount of money but the best things in life don't come easy. Good luck my dude 🎉

[@mariacharitofuentes6155]

Love your content. Been contemplating on quitting my job also to focus on taking care of my baby Anyway, hello all the way from the philippines!

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Thank you! Yeah, just reflect on your circumstances and create some plans on how it could be done. You got this! 🤗

[@DNA350ppm]

Thank you for your reflections, Seve! I'm so happy when young people like you write for young people, about the stuff we as old people would like to confirm/affirm: that it is so important that you can take the next steps to live your own life, to be a bit brave and proactive, but not reckless - don't set out over the Atlantic, if you haven't learned to sail in the Balitc sea first. Be courageous and listen to those who have done it. My experience (now looking back from the perspective of retirement) is that it takes at least 2 years to get a new major project going a bit smoothly, and I think preferably I should have given it three years, before calling it a cul-de-sac. It s easy to give up tooo soon. And turning back is no shame, you can always do it, you'll always have learned something, that you'll never know how handy it will come in one day. In other words, as you, Seve, have the mind-set of learning and sharing, you are always on the right track. So all the best wishes and kudos for the videos.

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Thank you so much for these words of wisdom and the inspiration! 🌿🌞

[@taracasper]

I recently resigned from my 26 year corporate job. The difference between you and I is that I don’t have a dream. I just knew I didn’t want to work in that environment anymore! Now I’m trying to learn what it is I would love to do!! I value your videos and the wisdom you share!!

[@SunnyKindJourney]

I have a suggestion for you! I just got this book called "80.000 hours" for free and started reading it. It's about how to find a fulfilling career and do good in the world through your work. It's made for people exactly like you! Here's the link, just write there your email and you will get a link to get one of their books delivered to you for free: 80000hours.org/book/

[@taracasper]

@@SunnyKindJourney YOU ARE SO AWESOME!!!! Thank you so so much! I'm going to go to the link right now!! It means so much that you would take the time to suggest this to me!!

[@ThitikanM]

Thank you for sharing your journey with us. I admire your all-in commitment, authenticity, and calmness. I've heard you talk a lot about balance, and I'd like to know how you implement balance into your everyday life because I struggle with it, especially on the mental side. Would love to see different kind of your video like lifestyle, activity and adventure too!

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Thank you for your kind words! 😊 Balance for me basically means two types of things - balance in every area of life (not sacrificing for example my health for career or social area) and then balance as in taking breaks and not pushing myself mentally too much. Also, for me there are periods when I focus more on certain things but that's balance as well. Not always things can be perfectly balanced. Regarding the mental balance, recognizing what is taking away that balance from you and then what could be a counter act for that (so balancing the unbalancing factor if that makes sense) is very important. This is super personal as well so it depends on your life situation and things that bring you that self-care. Hope this helps even a bit! 😊

[@ThitikanM]

@@SunnyKindJourney What is take away balance from me? Very simple and great question Thanks!❤ I gotta work on this and see what I can do.

[@Novacynthia]

May your dreams bring you Joy on your journey 🎉 all the best to you!!

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Thank you so much!! ❤️

@@SunnyKindJourney Very welcome 🌞

[@joshuawade7341]

I have been disabled for over ten years now and I am struggling to find a way back out of it so that I can sustain myself and my needs. It is very easy to think about just getting a job somewhere, anywhere, but I know in the past that was terrible for my health. I am trying to find a way forward that is sustainable and fulfilling. I find such inspiration in your story, I don't think that my future is ever going to sit well with consumerism and capitalism. I have to find a different path.

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Thanks for sharing your story and I wish all the best to you, Joshua! You got this 🤗

[@frostbittenarts]

Thank you for this video 🙏. I started my own dream journey three months ago and it's nice to hear someone else's version of what is happening in an honest way.

[@SunnyKindJourney]

You got this! Hope this inspired you to keep going 💪

[@sarinasuisse6933]

Just what I needed, thank you. I'm a Swiss high school teacher (and I'm not even bad at what I do) but I've been struggling for the last couple of years with how much work, social relationships, planning, evaluating etc the job requires on a day to day basis. I love creating good learning materials and have always been very creative but the job doesn't pay you for that kind of extra work. You're supposed to work efficiently, otherwise you'll work in your freetime. As a teacher, you're in a constant performance situation. I love giving workshops and teaching, but not all day, everyday. It really takes so much energy. I've been wanting to switch to being a learning material author because I love creating, writing, filming and the likes and I love learning and teaching, just not always being in front of people and organizing their days or managing their moods. Thank you for being a kind-hearted inspiration. I am going to resign next week and try to take the next steps. I already have a plan😊

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Thank you so much for sharing, and wow, it sounds like you’ve really thought this through! That shift to focusing on creating learning materials sounds like a good fit for your strengths and interests. Wishing you the best of luck with your next steps, you are courageous! 🌿😊

[@gangstaelegantproductions2780]

I have about two months worth of money and i need to go to California to get a driver's license and a job asap. Being an immigrant is no easy task

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Yeah, I get it. US has very different conditions to here so can't really compare or say whether that's enough or not. Wishing you the best of luck! 🌟

[@doireannrenzi7815]

Just found this channel. I’m already a minimalist but I love seeing new content on it because truly we need to be re-affirmed on this journey as we’re always going against the grain! Also, consider downsizing - it’ll save money and we’ll all love the packing and reducing content!

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Glad you found my channel :)

[@ralfgrabuschnig4743]

Oh man, thanks so much for sharing this. I can so relate. Did pretty much the same thing last August, also got hit with a huge increase in state insurance costs at the beginning of this yeah and struggle ever since, financially and of course mentally. So I guess what I wanna say is: It is nice to know we're not alone 😅

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Yeah, I think the times are more difficult for many right now financially than they were a few years ago. I am just trying to stay positive and focus on creating rather than wishing things were different 😄 Luckily, I was able to sort out the problems and kept the expenses relatively low. Wishing you luck and all the best! 🌟

[@Uncommony]

I did the same, and the results are unbelievable. One thing I learned is that all or nothing is not great as when it's not all or when things don't go you way, then you revert to nothing. So no matter the percentage of effort just turn up. Stay Uncommon!

[@ΜΑΡΙΑΛΕΝΑΣΤΑΜΑΤΑΚΗ]

I have been trying to make my dream come true for two years with many obstacles and health problems. A few months ago I stopped trying even though my soul hurts. I was alone along the way and got tired. I agree with you, you cannot do this alone. Now I am trying plan b and c. Flexibility is crucial for our mental health. I have been unemployed for 3 years and I hope I will be more lucky this time. Good luck with your youtube chanel, Seve! ☘️🌷

[@SunnyKindJourney]

Thanks for sharing this. Yes! It's so important to have plan B & plan C. Stay mindful and don't forget your dream ❤️

[@ΜΑΡΙΑΛΕΝΑΣΤΑΜΑΤΑΚΗ]

You are welcome! It's not easy to forget my dream but I want the best for me. The universe always knows better and have a plan for each person. 🙏

[@BibBobBibOnVacation]

Quitting as a freelancer, it’s not really the same…

[@SunnyKindJourney]

I mean, for many it might not be but I considered it a job. Working in a fixed position with an hourly rate every day for multiple hours. At least for me it was a job, I guess just with worse conditions because there were 0 paid holidays or health benefits 😄

[@BibBobBibOnVacation]

@@SunnyKindJourney I meant, the mentality of the employees is a different as one of the freelancers. The freelancer lives always with risk to loose the client, you learn to live with this, so it’s not the same for me to compare. I see your point, unfortunately I disagree here with you. But I watched your video, so success?

[@SunnyKindJourney]

@@BibBobBibOnVacation Yeah I agree with you on that one. Usually freelancers have a very different mindset. I have to say I also have a more entrepreneurial mindset. In this case I was not worried at all to lose them because it was a position they needed to fill. So if the company wouldn't go bankrupt, they would need someone to do that job I was doing. They could have easily hired me as an employee but I think it was cheaper for them to just get someone to work with a freelancer contract. And yes, thank you for watching my video and I enjoy conversations like this where we don't have to agree on certain things but can explore the topic together. I believe it's the way to expand your mind and see things from different perspectives. Have a good one! 🌟

[@BibBobBibOnVacation]

@@SunnyKindJourney with that I can agree, you too have a sunny day ☘️
