How long has that resignation letter been sitting in your drawer? Have you ever imagined doing a different job or having a more interesting career? All of us want to be in a job that’s fulfilling, but very few dare to take the leap. If you’re seeking for a little push to finally tender your resignation, here are four reasons to fire you up.

1. Your Efforts Are No Longer Working Out

You will know it’s time to quit when you have put so much effort on your duties, but still see no improvement. Once you have decided to quit, remember that you are in charge of how to deliver that message to your employer and to the people who deserve to know about it. Family and friends may respond with concerns, but it is your job to come up with plans for your next step.

2. You Don’t See a Good Future With It

Every job should lead to something: a promotion, an opportunity to learn new things, take on additional responsibilities or tackle new challenges. The future should show some potential to be different from today. Your boss should be able to help you and your co-workers to improve your future, even if—and especially if—that means you will eventually move to a bigger and better opportunity.

3. It Improves Your Quality of Life

Staying at a job that you no longer find fulfilling can leave you emotionally drained, but walking away from the unhappiness and stress can significantly improve your well-being. According to science, stress and tensions can exacerbate or trigger heart attacks and increase the risk of other diseases. While it’s common to experience financial stress after quitting a job, finding one that you know you love will eventually provide long-term positive effects.

4. You Feel Like You Don’t Have Purpose

Everyone wants to feel like a part of something significant. Every person likes to feel that they have impact not just on the productivity, but also in other people’s lives. Life is too short to spend on nothing important. It’s a tormenting to go home every single day feeling overworked, but have not accomplished anything meaningful.

Money won’t buy everything—but if you have to work for it, don’t you want your work to pay off more than just the monetary equivalent it provides? Do not let other people determine your future. Go out and find your worth. You will be surprised how financially stable you will become when you find a job that you truly love.

Now that you’re in your mid-20s, you have probably pondered about certain things in your life. Twenty five might be still young but you are slowly transitioning to full-gown mature adult. So, how should you adjust your life according to your maturity? Start with this guideline that outlines the things you should quit doing by now.

1. Dating Unsuitable People

It’s naturally hard to find someone to be life-long partner, but by the time you reach 25, you should already have a good idea of what you need in a partner. This is no longer the time to experiment on people who are obviously not right for you. Keep a healthy balance between being realistic and being willing to give people a chance to be part of your life.

2. Being Carefree of Your Finances

Unless you don’t have a single financial responsibility, you have to learn to live within your means. Know that you have bills to pay and everyday expenses to consider. It’s also time to get responsible and start your own savings account, together with a retirement plan if you have not got one yet.

3. Wasting Time on the Internet

This one can be challenging. Nowadays, people seem to be too dependent to the internet. We use it to communicate with friends, find information, as well as just browse through social media and unconsciously waste plenty of precious time. Learn to set your limits. If you can, try going internet-free in a day every week.

4. Being Too Nice

It’s human nature to want people to like us. However, being overly concerned of how to please everyone may push you to do things that could be contrary to what you believe is right for you. By this age, you should know what you are capable of and where your limits end. Learning to say ‘no’ is an important step to becoming mature.

5. Taking Your Fitness and Health For Granted

Many of us subject our bodies to too much alcohol, excessive junk food and late night parties in college without feeling the negative effects. Unfortunately, as you age, your body’s tolerance to these tasks gradually decreases. Now is the time to eat healthily, start hitting the gym and limit those wild night parties.

Twenty five may be still young, but you are at the age where you should be responsible of yourself. It’s no longer reasonable to be reckless and immature; time to do something to change your life for the better.
