So, yeah, i'm at that point where its time to talk about leaving the job. The business is clearing around 18-19k after all expenses, mortgages, yadda yadda. The wife called me yesterday and told me she could really use my help when I am at work. We agreed last night to a great transition plan. Now i'm starting to look at healthcare replacement options, trying to see what things I forgot to consider, and starting to feel a lot of anxiety. I'm not sure why I am feeling like this. I looked at my paychecks.....$2100 twice a month, plus all the insurance and other pieces that get factored into my compensation package. Pretty small compared to what I am able to do on my business.
I'm sure there are plenty of you that have left the comfy day job to continue growing your own business. I feel somewhat institutionalized.....like the guy thats getting ready to leave prison after a 30 year stay. Can anyone give me some perspective on this? Is the anxiety normal?
(edit.....the title "too scared to quit" is not accurate. More like "I am scared about leaving my job")
