I once thought about leaving the office job and becoming a porn star, but I realised I was overqualified for the job.

My job doesn’t stimulate me anymore and I need a change.
I’ve been at 2 different companies both for around 10 years each.
My pay is good to very good and it’s what is keeping me there.
People tell me you should love your job and make it your passion but neither of those have ever been ticked on my job list.
As I’m on good money that is not a motivator for me anymore.
Enjoying what I do next is my main priority.
Finding what that is, is bloody hard though.

I’m slowly realising life’s too short to be doing something you don’t really enjoy.
It’s certainly a risk as I have security and good income currently but need to find something that I really enjoy.
I’m not going to change for the sake of change like some people do, so I’m looking at it from all venues before making an informed decision.

So you are stalking potential new job sites by watching them from the outside first??

All very well winning the work to start with, then performing it, but ensuring the feed of jobs was kept up was hard when working full time in the job you have won, to ensure it was done well. The stop start nature between jobs can be stressful.
You need to have a very good network and be constantly networking out of hours to ensure you can keep the stream of work and also that you do not overcommit yourself.

I’ve looked at it several times but as you’ve mentioned it’s bloody hard work running your own business.
Being your own boss works for some people but not me unfortunately.
Anyone who runs their own business gets respect from me.
