Basically, if you're living a life (working a job) that forms a barrier to happiness, quit.
But don't quit to follow your passion (which I'm guessing is why the YouTube guy quit and thus is his "mistake").
And don't necessarily quit right away.
I worked a full time job. I've spent about 3 years going to work without feeling fulfilled. I was longing to live the unscripted life, without consciously being aware of it.
Then quite suddenly, I decided to quit.
But I didn't quit to follow my passion.
And I didn't quit solely because I couldn't take it anymore.
While working my job, I built a business. I started to focus less on my job, and more on my "escape plan" if you will.
When the business showed potential, but was limited due to the requirement of spending a certain amount of time and effort on my day job, I quit. I haven't regretted that decision for a single moment since.
Quit your job not to follow your passion. Quit your job - when the time is right - to fully live Fastlane/Unscripted .
