Listener Letters Quitting
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2320403/open_sms">Send me a text</a></p><p>Hello everyone! I'm Jason Fisher, your host for the <a href='http://www.bebettertomorrow.com'>Be Better Tomorrow</a> podcast. I'm truly grateful for each of you who tune in, whether it's your first time with us or you're a returning listener. Your support means the world to me.<br/><br/>Today, we're wrapping up our fascinating series on <b>quitting</b>. We've delved deep into the psychology of quitting, how to know if it's the right time, and the impacts it can have on your identity. If you're just catching up, I highly recommend revisiting our past four episodes to get the full picture. <br/><br/>Now, let's dive into some questions from you, our listeners, which have been accumulating over the series. <br/><br/></p><ul><li>Re-Identifying Yourself After Quitting</li></ul><p><br/>A challenging question we received was how to re-identify oneself after quitting something significant. This hits home for many, whether you're quitting a long-term job, a hobby like marathon running due to health issues, or undergoing any significant change. Though there's no easy answer, considering **identity is ever-evolving**, understanding this constant state of flux is crucial. I discussed how life's changes, much like the stages of grief, require us to adapt and reframe our identities. For more on this, referring to **Bill Burnett and Dave Evans' "Designing Your Life"** might offer some insightful strategies.<br/><br/></p><ul><li>Balancing Opportunity Costs and Personal Fulfillment</li></ul><p><br/>Another listener brought up the struggle of juggling hobbies that bring joy against activities that might offer more towards career advancement. I shared how, in my personal life, seemingly unrelated activities like mountain biking and painting miniatures enrich my life and surprisingly benefit my career in unexpected ways. It's about **finding balance** and allowing yourself to enjoy life while not neglecting your ambitions.<br/><br/></p><ul><li>Quirring Criteria for Hobbies and Career Shifts</li></ul><p><br/>We also touched upon knowing when to quit a hobby and confronting career shifts. It's essential to **analyze personal tendencies towards discomfort** and assess whether you're seeking growth or running from challenges. Self-awareness is key, and sometimes, getting outside perspectives can provide clarity.<br/><br/></p><ul><li>Connecting with Us</li></ul><p><br/>We love hearing your thoughts, questions, and stories. For those looking deeper into topics like career shifts or identity changes, don't hesitate to reach out for a more personal consultation at **jason@bebettertomorrow.com**. Remember, the journey towards understanding and improvement is ongoing, and you're not alone in it.<br/><br/></p><ul><li>Stay Connected</li></ul><p><br/>Don't miss out on future episodes and updates.

The Psychology of Quitting
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2320403/open_sms">Send me a text</a></p><p>Hey, it's Jason Fisher here, and I just wrapped up the latest episode in our series on quitting over at the Be Better Tomorrow Podcast. As always, I'm here to guide you through the sometimes tough, but always rewarding journey of self-improvement. Thanks for allowing me to be a part of your day.<br/><br/>Today's episode was quite the deep dive into the psychological and emotional nuances of quitting. It's more than just a decision; it's an emotional journey that intertwines with our identity, values, and fears. If you missed the earlier episodes in this series, I highly recommend going back to catch up. It'll give today's conversation even more impact and clarity.<br/><br/>As part of our episode, I want to remind everyone that this journey is possible thanks to support from Audible. They're offering our listeners a free audiobook to help you on your path of self-improvement. Just visit **bebettertomorrow.com/audible** to claim your free book. Trust me, you won't regret it.<br/><br/>Now, let's recap some key points:<br/><br/>1. **Quitting as a Tool for Personal Growth**: We dug into how quitting isn't a sign of failure but can be a strategic move towards better alignment with your values and aspirations.<br/><br/>2. **Identity and Quitting**: Much of our discussion centered around the tough emotional aspect of disconnecting our personal identity from the activities or roles we decide to leave behind.<br/><br/>3. **Overcoming Fears**: I shared insights into common fears like the fear of failure and the fear of the unknown, and how understanding and confronting these fears can be transformative.<br/><br/>4. **Growth Mindset**: The importance of adopting a growth mindset, as described in Carol Dweck's book, cannot be overstated. It's a game-changer in how we approach challenges and perceived failures. Highly recommend giving it a read if you haven't already.<br/><br/>5. **Real-life Examples**: We talked about Sarah, who shifted her career from finance to teaching, and Mark, a marathon runner who re-evaluated his passion for the sake of his health. Both stories highlight the emotional journey and eventual positive outcomes of making a tough decision to quit.<br/><br/>If you're wrestling with a decision to quit something, I propose a simple exercise: jot down your fears and emotional barriers related to this decision. Identifying these can be the first step towards overcoming them. And remember, I'm right here to discuss any of these points further. Reach out to me at **jason@bebettertomorrow.com** or connect on social media at **Facebook.com/thebebetterpod** and **Twitter.com/thebebetterpod**.<br/><br/>Your feedback is invaluable, and I'd love to incorporate your questions or insights into our upcoming listener letter episode. Together, we're building a community that's not just about being better today, but every day.<br/><br/>Thanks for joining me once again. Remember, the path to being better tomorrow starts today, one step at a time. Let's keep moving forward together.</p><p>Follow me at:<br/>https://twitter.com/TheBeBetterPod<br/>https://www.facebook.com/TheBeBetterPod</p>

Quit Criteria
<p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2320403/open_sms">Send me a text</a></p><p><b>Embracing the Power of Quitting: A Pathway to Personal and Professional Growth</b><br/><br/>I’ve always believed that the essence of personal growth is not just sticking to the familiar but daring to step off the beaten path. Recently, on my podcast, we ventured into a concept that's often shrouded in negativity: quitting. Our society tends to paint quitting in a less favorable light, associating it with failure. However, I firmly believe that strategic quitting can be a stepping stone to finding our true passions and achieving greater success.<br/><br/>Our latest episode delved deep into the art of knowing when to quit and creating a solid framework around the decision. It's not merely about giving up; it's about making an informed choice that aligns with our values, goals, and well-being. We discussed the importance of stepping back, evaluating our current pursuits, and asking ourselves, "Is this path leading me to where I want to be?"<br/><br/><b>Finding the Courage to Let Go</b><br/><br/>In exploring the topic, I shared insights into external factors that often chain us to our current situations—peer pressure, societal expectations, and the comfort of familiarity. Yet, history is filled with stories of successful individuals and companies, like Google or Apple, who mastered the art of quitting unproductive ventures to focus on what truly mattered. This episode prompts listeners to reflect on their own lives and identify areas where strategic quitting could open doors to new opportunities.<br/><br/><b>A Guide to Decisive Quitting</b><br/><br/>The crux of our discussion focused on establishing "quitting criteria," a concept borrowed from the IT sector’s pre-mortems. By setting clear, measurable goals and conditions under which we would consider quitting, we can remove the emotional weight from the decision-making process. This approach ensures that our choices are grounded in logic, align with our values, and lead us towards a more fulfilling path.<br/><br/>I shared my personal experience with podcasting, highlighting the importance of setting specific metrics for success and knowing when to pivot if those aren't met. It's about being honest with ourselves, setting realistic expectations, and being open to change.<br/><br/><b>Embracing New Beginnings</b><br/><br/>One vital takeaway from the episode is the concept of having something to quit towards. Quitting without a direction or purpose can leave us adrift. Therefore, it's crucial to identify what truly excites us and channel our energies into pursuits that ignite our passion and drive.<br/><br/><b>Your Role in the Journey</b><br/><br/>As the host of this podcast, my goal has always been to foster a community where we can share, learn, and grow together. I encourage you to engage with this episode, reflect on its lessons, and reach out with your stories of strategic quitting and the successes it has led you to. Your experiences enrich our discussions and inspire others within our community to make bold, transformative decisions.<br/><br/><b>Recommended Resources for Further Reading:</b></p><ul><li>Brené Brown, <a href='https://amzn.to/3xRIF6u'><em>The Gifts of Imperfection</em></a></li><li>Malcolm Gladwell, <a href='https://amzn.to/4eXHFym'><em>The Tipping Point</em></a></li><li>Stephen Covey, <a href='https://amzn.to/4eY1ci8'><em>The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People</em></a></li></ul><a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/hz/audible/gift-membership-detail?tag=godf-20&linkCode=ur1">Learn more faster with Audible</a><br>Audible is one of the largest collections of audio books on the planet.
