  • I made this video long time ago, but I've never released it, as I feel so hard to tell people about my story like this. After a while, I finally post this video. If you are watching it, it means I haven't deleted it (but i may sometime, who knows).
    I quit my job, after I learned important life lessons.

      Hi Ashley, thank you for sharing this video. It is really courageous of you to do so. I enjoyed watching it and you are not alone. I know friends who left their high-paying, jet-setting jobs at their peaks of their careers.
      Most of the reasons for quitting are one or a combination of the following reasons: 1) Health, 2) Family and 3) Fulfillment.
      I believe you have make the choice that is best for you. There is no right or wrong choice.
      All the best. :)

    In chasing after their dream living, many have forgotten about living, that is the art of living, an undying art over thousands of years, not just during the time policemen were wearing shorts.

    • @deepone5005
      @deepone5005 3 года назад +4

      @@TheKrazyKoala The balance is in the art itself, sori to disappoint you if anyone is looking for a straight answer as in an MBA class. It is something very fundalmental which requires a paradigm shift in one's values in life to begin with , values so deep-seated and ingrained from a young age. Or in trying to follow what life-changing gurus recommend , one would ultimately have to face this need to re-orientate and re-prioritise, or else it is back to square one. That is the sole reason why many would feel high and gungho after a motivation class , but then remain in the rut and chase soon after. The secret is deep in the heart. I quited being a fighter pilot- not because I cldnt make it - onroute to a certain cushy job in an airline and left a sea-faring career travelling around the world at 19 yrs old in its wake to discover myself. I m glad I found it but isnt the one I really want in life which unfortunately is not possible in the context of my enviroment then and the needs of the Spore economy.

      @@TheKrazyKoala Being born into abject poverty, and brought up living in a literal cowshed with no running water and electricity, in a broken family wrecked with severe ,constant violence and physical abuse- virtually fatherless and motherless if you kno what i mean - the dream in me to see the world didnt die. I joined a global cargo-going ship as a cadet but was exploited as cheap labor. And Wow! It was a dream come true! It opened my eyes big big at the raw age of 19 yrs old! Joined ship in Sao Paulo, Brazil after 48 hrs of back2back flights and land & water transports. It made me hate flying as much as I wanted to fly; and experienced racism in NYC for the 1st time ! I travelled up and down North and South America via the Great Mississippi ( that was where I learnt to speak proper English with an American accent) and the Panama Canal a few times before crossing the great Pacific to TsinTao, China in 33 days , right smack in a raging typhoon that gave me the 1st encounter of facing possible death. Then we dropped into Japan, Tokyo,Ginza, Shinzuku, back to Spore into the Army where I got cluelessly handpicked to defend Spore as a fighter pilot.....Another dream come true! It was great as it lasted flying the latest jet till something deep told me to scan far and wide, not just across the cockpit's array of instruments. I glimpsed a dream which was far and vague. I knew at that age being strapped to a killer machine or in a room at 30-40 km high in the sky wasnt what i wanted - but it was a most torturing decision. But I LOVE TO FLY, be a master of a supersonic machine!! Nevertheless ,I saw a picture in front of me, a life I wasnt born to live for nor be happy with. So, there it goes, even though every now and then I dream of flying in real dreams..... and I wish i cld travel all over the world again too..not on Utube of course.

    A big big bold step u have taken, KK.
    Big monie comes with big accountability n responsibility.
    I feel you. Cuz' I was in the same boat. I juz walk away n totally burnout. A passion I yearn turned into reality and it ain't a dream anymore. As I was blessed with successful pjts, then, came bigger task n inevitably bigger challenges n responsibilities.
    Your mind n body fighting for your attention. Your mind tells you..Juz do it but your Body tells you... I cant take it anymore. Hence, it affects your mood, passion n motivation ....inevitably,....Your Health.
    Health is Wealth...yes,its easy said than done wen u are in the thick of the action.
    For those, who laughed at you for walking away n doing these YT videos. Laugh for laugh itself. Dont give a fret cuz u know what you are...who you are...like the saying goes, "Be yourself, no matter what they say" (quote from Sting's lyric- Englishman in NY).
    Stand up n Take a Bow. Respect your boldness. You succeed in the past cuz u are different. God given talent. Wen u have such attributes, nothing gonna stop you what your heart desires!
    All the best, KK. Blessings

      Hello Mathew san, thank you for your courage and support as always, taking the time to write to me!!
      I think the bigger money you take, the more responsibilities you take, it's just getting more and more and more, to the point that you don't even know how to put them down, and take a breathe.
      once you have the responsibilities, it's just too difficult to say no that you don't want to do it. it will become a vicious cycle and putting you into a trap, if i would say.

    Don’t regret. Things happen for a reason. I quit my USD 450K job in US and moved back to SG. Had the same jet setting lifestyle and travelled all over the world until I burned myself out. Mild depression. Now I’m much happier after slowing down. Salary-wise I still make about the same in SG, so I’m quite fortunate. Take care of your health and I’m sure that was God’s way of telling you to slow down for your own good.

But the pastor asked him what have you got up there. We can't buy our place in heaven because we willl never be good enough or perfect enough to be given a place in heaven because we are all sinners.
