Re: Full time or Part time Entrepreneur
 
Indeed, you are brave.

I too wanted to quit my full time job despite the current economic situation and concentrate on my online business. I want to pursue my passion and my dreams.

In fact, last month I had actually gave my resignation. Sadly, it was rejected. I was overwhelmed by their persistent request for me to stay on. I caved-in.

After reading your post, I felt a stir in me to go ahead with my initial plan. My full time job had been stagnant and not much opportunity for career development. No challenges to better skills improvement yet commanding 24hr attention.

Perhaps, I should relook my objectives and stay firm on my decision.

wow! i feel inspired! hope to join you one of these days! at the moment, considering my financial c0mmitment & other family issues, i'm unlikely to quit having a full time job for the next few months... i really can't wait, never really like work for people.

meanwhile. apart from the retail bis i'm planning to start in the next 1 to 2 months, i'm also looking at developing other lobangs to have additional income streams before quitting.

For me, I still have to support my family ( my dad and my mum is not working and my sister just started working) and to be frank I still have a house to pay but what I will suggest to you all is stay firm on your decision. But you cant wait for money to drop down from the sky. You got to be prepare that you got to put extra hard work than normal.. I dun know I love to run bazzars or events as I love to serve customers and I love the praises that I got from my customers or email.. I also love to make money from online too.. I love to see my email filling up my orders..lol...

I recently just tendered too. Sick of working over there and thot of spending more time doing own biz rather than working for other ppl. At the same time, i also learning some makeup course. So, its actually quite a stressful life i hab right now. However, my boss offered part time position for me. Pay wise is rather attractive than other part time job. So im considering it again... Really difficult to make choices sia!
