2 years later I wanted out ASAP.

1. You have no control over your life.
Got a wedding? Nope.
Friends party? Sorry can't make it.
If a company controls your time, you don't control your life.

2. You'll never fulfill your potential
Your value is capped at your salary.
Over time your dreams will slowly fade away until you settle.
"It's not a bad job really" you'll kid to yourself.

3. You'll get comfortable
A salary is a lazy man's game.
Progress doesn't happen in the comfort zone.
Get out of the groove you've put yourself in & take control of your life.

4. Poor financial IQ
I've met people earning 6 figures for 30 years who don't have a penny.
They buy a big house.
Buy a nice car.
Have an expensive wedding.
They're DEPENDANT on their salary because of poor financial IQ.
Now they're trapped.

5. People label you as your job
"Oh that's John, he's a [insert job title]"
C'mon, you're better than a title.

6. You'll never experience freedom or wealth.
Your salary won't be high enough to afford genuine wealth.
You can be comfortable, but rarely wealthy.
You also have to keep selling your time.

8. It's boring.
We're meant to build & create. Not doing the same thing for 45 years then die.
Depression rates are so high because people are unfulfilled & over worked.

9. It's a rat race
You'll spend your whole life chasing the carrot.
Promotion.
Pay rise.
New role.
When you achieve it you'll instantly start looking for the next dangling carrot.
Live in the moment & build assets.

10. Mindset is everything
I'm not shitting on jobs, everyone needs to make money.
But if you want to achieve great things in the long run, you NEED to find a better way.
Use paychecks to invest into your future empire.
Have the right mindset & never stop learning.
