Have you ever started a project and wanted to quit?
Have you quit something too early?
Are you known as a starter, not a finisher?
That’s been me before. I’ve quit a lot of things. This podcast though, I’m not quitting. But I am taking a break to reorganize and recharge.
Today on the podcast, I talk about how to decide whether or not to quit.

Did you know that you will spend 90,000 hours of your life working? That's over 3,700 days! We better make it count then, right?
But what do you do if you can't seem to find the right job? One that fulfills you. What if you're in a job now that isn't right?
Today on the podcast, we're going to talk about how to figure out what you work purpose is and how to make the best of it even if you're not in the perfect job right now.

After doing my own year and reflection and intention setting for 2018, I’ve decided that I’m going to bring season 1 of this podcast to a close!

You know how sometimes we can be irrational? Like being afraid of something you know won't hurt you? Or losing your temper when your TV breaks even though you know that they aren't supposed to last forever? When our emotions run us, there is chaos. One way to help us overcome this is to take an analytical approach.
