I have been in a job I detested and although I somehow managed to stay at it for up to 4 years, I didn't even for once let go of my passionate hobby and other passive streams of income I was interested in at the time.
Today, one of my passive interests pays more than my salary. My mind has been yearning for a resignation, but opinions of others and family bears the message of patience with the job I so much detest for reasons ranging from inflation to fear of the unknown.
If you were in my shoes, what would be the best advice you would give yourself and adhere to in this instance?
I would stay on the side of passive income when I remember the salary cuts and dire economic situation that almost pushed me into the streets during the pandemic and the year after. A salaried job, despite the benefits attached to it, is not consistent. It was the income from my side hustle that I had been building up along with my main job that saved me.
In other words, I trust my passive income to provide me with greater financial stability than my salary job. Right now, my earnings is from my passive income is higher but I won't quit because we need the multiple streams of income to keep flowing in.
