I quit my 9-5 corporate job to do my own thing. Then I burnt out.
Today I'm sharing my experience with quitting a safe 9-5 job and its negative consequences on my mental health. I talk about my story that led me here, about what I mean by "burnout" and what my mental and physical symptoms are/were, what I could have done better to avoid this, and what I'm changing.
If you're considering leaving your job to start your own business, you should definitely watch this so that you can maybe learn from mistakes:)

The burn out is real. Slow down but never give up. Everything is gonna work out perfectly, the way it supposed to. The best way to achieve our dreams is to have patience, consistency and discipline. The more you overstress yourself, the more likely that you will give up or lose momentum. Slow down 🌹

Idealism is not working in the real world. Good have patience, consistency and discipline but sometimes you are not at the right place for you and that is just that. You risk changing stuff sometimes for the better sometimes for the worse but it is good experience and you learn from it, so this could be helpful later on in your life.

I quit my full-time job in 2015 and everything you say is correct. You become acutely aware of time and limitations on your energy in a way I never considered before. Shiny Object Syndrome usually manifests from a lapse in confidence and direction and its best to beat it back as early as possible.

I hate my daily routine and got stuck in avolition, couldn't complete any simple task in my daily life, and I just got so thrilled when watched many KZfaq videos saying everything will be okay after quitting your job. I'm grateful to see the other side of the story, maybe what I need now is to slow my life down and regenerate my health and energy before making some important decisions. Thank you again Hannah wish you all the best~

I quit my job 3 months ago to follow my dreams and I’m still recovering from burnout 😅 I had this grand idea that I was going to be so motivated after quitting my job, but I have slept SO much. Im still struggling with motivation, but allowing ourselves to rest is huge. I agree with you! I’m proud of you for listening to yourself and your body 🩷

@hnnhml Ай бұрын

I think it’s good that you’re listening to your body and are focusing on recovering before diving into your next big project - that way you’ll have more energy and stress resistance later on. And i think once you’re reenergized the motivation will come:)

This is beyond helpful for me at this time. The self diagnosis culture is sad, but the fact that you did actually hit burnout is representative how the ‘keep pushing’ mentality is for the few. I really hope you get what you want. I've been pushing for 21 years now (music business first and then architectural practices) and achieved great things, but still haven't hit my ‘goal’ as it slides up hill…I feel the rollercoaster isn't put across enough in the hustle culture and videos like this help to make people like me (who probably fall into that bracket 🙄) feel more human. Thank you so much and if you ever put a group together then make sure you add me! 💪 Keep your head up and staying mindful of your health. 💌

I've been doing the 'do my own thing' all my life. And I value the freedom and adventure - but looking back I always have had 2 completely different type of jobs. 1 passion/career job taking a lot of energy (ambitious, concentrate in front of a computer etc)- and 1 completely different job like a weekend job in a restaurant (not manager, dishwasher, host, at times server - but never manager). These 2 completely different jobs have made me balance things best. Just sharing in case helpful for someone reading this..

I find myself almost in the exact same situation since I finished school (0/10 horrible experience) and absolutely dread the thought of further education. So my life depended on my gap year where I try so hard to do everything at once which was all completely new and quickly find success at the same time (with this channel and I'm still at the preparations phase), while struggling with disabilities and almost no reliable jobs I can do to earn money, which adds a lot of stress. Now I'm slowly choosing the education path to escape this shitty job market which I kinda hate myself for since everything I worked for so far was so I could do the opposite and never touch a one-size-fits-all education building again in my life while also not turning into a jobless family disappointment... Accepting the fact that the first things you create will suck and that it takes wayyyyyyy longer is hard but necessary. Thank you for making this video, you articulated all those feelings and struggles so well and opened my eyes. I wish you good luck in whatever you do now 💝💖

Great video, Hannah! I had a similar experience, although I didn't quit my job "for good". I took a 6-month sabbatical between jobs last year and was gonna do so much for my channel but it took me 3 months just to recover from my previous job. I slept 10 hours a night and could hardly focus. So rather than posting more, I ended up not posting at all for 2 months. Looking back, I think that's completely normal and I would plan in at least 3 months of recovery & exploration next time rather than expecting to be productive right away 🥲 Great to hear that you found a way to reduce stress and keep going. I look forward to learning more about how you're managing your life doing your own thing!

You bring a really good point about pacing yourself. I am notoriously bad at this. I think on a subconscious level is part of the reason why I didn't yet do as you did. Also, I started working from home since Covid, and since then, I have basicly zero stress from work, last 4 years. I will most likely tend to some areas I need to improve first, then in a year start slowly working at the same time, while keeping my current job, until my other gig takes off. Otherwise, it will be as it has always been. I will just become obsessed, never stop.. I know myself, and I am confident by now, that I have no control, over things I love. Having insomnia my whole life, usually plays into that too.. Thanks for the thought. Subbed.

But I can say in 30+ plus years nothing has gotten easier...in fact it's the opposite...I'm working more hours and doing more difficult kinds of work than I ever have in my life...and yes my salaray has increased...but I am burned out with not enough savings to really retire for long...so if I don't make something else work...I will be working 9-5 until I drop dead. Don't be like me and try to scramble when you are older...it's just too hard. Thanks Hannah for sharing your situation and struggles...blessings to you...I wish you success and happiness!

This is something that I think so many people actually experience, but never talk about. Thank you for telling your story! I can only agree to... everything you said in this video. My story is just slightly different - instead of coroporate job, I worked as a marketing freelancer for other small businesses 'just until I stand on my own feet'. This stupid plan caused 2 burnouts before 30 (can you get in Forbes with that? :D ), and the last one was so severe I couldn't work for 3-4 months at all. Now the lesson I've learnt is - taking care of myself first. My health, my wellbeing, my business. And only then of others. There is still a long road ahead to 'get on my feet'. However, there is one quote that keeps me going: 'Do the best you can, until you know better. Then do better.' And, as you said - better doesn't always mean 'more'. P.S. Sometimes actually I wish I had worked at corporate first! It teaches you how a solid business looks like, how it operates, the language people use in the industry, which can be extremely helpful when starting your own thing.

@hnnhml Ай бұрын

smart decision quitting without a backup - thats the only true method to see the great things you are capable of. even better when you cannot afford simple things like food/health care due to quitting your 9-5---you gonna force that greatness out. you quit because you know there is more for you out there. people stay in a stable job for decades because they fear whats out there. Any 9-5 job that jeopardizes your well being/physical health/mental health etc needs to go immediately - there is no creating or planning a backup! Drop that job the next day, figure the rest out after because your greatest wealth you will ever posses is your health.

nothing is perfect working in cooporate or doing your own thing honestly I just want to retire early and not work in either. I think when I work at home sometimes I get the burn out even though people say working at home is so good.

@hnnhml Ай бұрын

I agree, it all has an upside and a downside. And about working from home - I read that research actually supports your feeling, that people working from home have a bigger risk to burn out compared to office-goers, because at home it can be harder to detach from work (and also to actually take breaks). So maybe try out working at co-working spaces if you don't have an office to go to, that might help:)
