I recently left a job I was very happy at to start my own company based around a project I was really passionate about. It was scary at first but we recently secured a decent chunk of funding. It's a lot of hard work but it feels liberating to do your own thing.

I'm leaving everything I have ever known in two weeks to start a new life 1,000 miles away. Hopefully in one year, I will be able to say that was the best decision I've ever made.

Getting out of the Air Force and finding a real job. With all the training the AF have me it was such a waste to reenlist. I literally left thousands on the table and could be making a lot more had I bounced sooner. I love my country but the military screws over their enlisted guys pay.

I am ex-navy and the biggest issue with military pay is that it is rank based and independent of job. That's not like the real world in any way so they end up losing a lot of their talent to the private sector after their first or second enlistment. Of course it's all quite a predicament as making pay both job and rank based would have some negative consequences.

Lucky me they found I had a medical issue and I pushed hard for a med board. They medically retired me (all retiree benefits) and I make a pretty good chunk of change off disability.

Cutting a few people out of my life! The quality of mine has increased dramatically.

Taking a risk and going on interviews for a new internship instead of asking to work at my old one.

I loved the first company I worked for, but I wouldn't give the experience that I've been able to have for the world.
