   Indeed there is. There are many examples of individuals that quit their position or are fired from their position and end up reaching their potential and ideal situation because of the initially anxious event. Read about Steve Jobs, Walt Disney...

   Absolutely, it is when we quit doing things in life that hold us back or keep us miserable, that we are able to try new ways of living that lead us to more of our potential.  If I'd have bought into the idea I had to be a wage earner for someone else all my life; I probably never would have been satisfied, because I've always had a hunger to do things on my own terms.  Everyone is different, but certainly in life when something no longer serves us, we should find a way to quit doing it.

      Hi Christin,
      
      I'm actually in that wage earner situation myself at the moment and that advice is right up my alley, thanks!

   Sometimes quitting can be very therapeutic for all parties involved.  Ever met someone who was literally holding their company back because they were burned out or lazy or way past needing to retire?  Being in a situation you don't want to be in causes you to carry a negativity with you that infects everyone around you.  Quitting is sometimes acknowledging that you need to move on and let others grow without you.

      Hi Motherbynature,
      
      I agree, sometimes it is better for people to move on to better things
