5 things you should consider before you cancel your job


Sometimes it's just time to take the next step: anyone who is bored in the job is looking for new challenges. However, before you actually submit the termination, you should be aware of a few things.
Long gone are the times when you spend your whole life in a position in the same company. Nowadays it is even necessary to change the job more often, to gain more expertise and to take different perspectives. A study conducted by the "LinkedIn" job network shows that university graduates currently receive almost twice as many jobs as the generation before in the first five years after university.
If you think about a change, you are not alone with your thoughts. Whatever reasons you have to leave your job, these things you should consider:

1. Imagine a career plan

Where do you want to go in your profession? Whether it is a higher salary or a better title that encourages you to consider a change of job - before you break off your tents in your current job, you should try to make yourself aware of your ultimate goal. It usually sounds literally far-fetched to think about where you look in ten years, but this thought game will allow you to illustrate the next steps of your career and determine where you should go next - and what you can expect from the new job promise.

2. Invest in yourself

How can you develop yourself without changing the job? Sign up for further training, work out additional qualifications, such as SEO skills or Google AdWords foundations, or refresh your school-French. Even if these skills are not directly related to your previous job, you will consider them as a member of your current company, and such competences are also good in the curriculum vitae. Who knows, maybe you are already waving a promotion in your current job?

3. Check your motivation

Perhaps you already have a concrete job envisioned or have a wishful place from which you have long dreamed. Either way, you should consider whether the new job really offers you new challenges and perspectives, or whether only the novelty of the job is exciting. After all, you should grow at and in your job. If you cancel, you should not step on the spot, and, after the exciting start time, find where they were in your old job as well.

4. Ask your plans

Do you believe to know what the next step on your career ladder is? Then compare your current position with the prospective analytical. In most cases new jobs with a higher salary are attracted - but what about holidays, retirement, childcare etc.? If the new job brings you disadvantages in the long term, it is time to think about the planned termination and to look for alternatives.

5. Appreciate your contacts

Be aware that leaving your company is a loss - and that you may find a disappointment with your colleagues and the boss. Take this as a compliment and remain conciliatory. You never know when the paths cross again, and when you may be dependent on contacts from former colleagues. If you decide to cancel, you remain fair: Announce early enough, and thank your boss for the time in the company and the opportunities that have been offered to you. Maybe it's no goodbye forever.

For beautiful tight legs: The 30 day leg challenge!

Let it burn: With this challenge, every day becomes a leg-day! As soon as the temperatures become summery again and the short pants season is up, the legs move back into the field of view. It means being prepared. Plays with our 30 day leg challenge and tightens your legs. Jumping squats for thighs and buttocks Squats, to German squats, are the absolute must-do for tight thighs and a crispy butt. Obviously, such an exercise must not be missed in a leg challenge, so we have picked out a super-effective variant in which the calves are also addressed. Here's how: Just get up, your feet are about shoulder-width apart. In order to spare your back and keep your upper body in good shape, your belly is taut. Lower your buttocks backwards as if you were going to sit down. Then you jump to the top. You can help with the arms and get some momentum (be careful not to bother your head). If this is too strenuous, or who has knee problems, shoul...

Do what you love!

In reference to the article on Facebook, I wrote that this year I have made it my job to read a book every week and you are the beneficiaries of this project because of my reading, of course, many books on the subject of independence. The first comment that followed on my posting was the demand as I create the time because and if I use apps like  Blinkist  .  For all those who do not know Blinkist: This app is an app that summarizes more than 1,500 technical books in short texts.  For the reading of these texts one does not usually need more than 15 minutes.  You can also listen to them. My answer to the question was: No, I'm not using blinkers, but I actually read the books completely.  For this I mainly use the time before bedtime.  One or two hours are left to me every day, depending on how exciting the book is and whether it is difficult for me to put the book out of my hand. But I also cover waiting times, bus or train rides by reading book...
