>>6944705I studied business if that means anything but I`m no expert. Ive had this weird relationship to commitment If I`m ever going to start something whether its a job, a friendship etc. I was always determined to see it through. This has caused me quite a lot of shit in the long run. I`ve stayed within toxic friendships, I`ve slogged through terrible education etc. . And well if I can say one thing its: theres a difference between commitment and kamikaze-ing.
Sometimes the best and strongest thing you can do is know when to end things. Your business is in the red, your not happy, you`ve stuck with it for 5 years. And have more years of education behind you, I think its time to say goodbye. Sure put that commitment in but dont go through years of struggling when you have lost your interest/motivation/belief that lead you to it in the first place when it shows no sign of picking up. Say you go to a new career, you desire for owning a business ( whatever it was that you got a education in etc. I`ll call it business for ease) might even come back slowly! You tried. that means a whole fucking lot. As for your parents I`m sorry for your loss, well I`m trying to say this without coming across as a dick so I apoligise If I do, wouldnt they be proud of the fact you tried? and stayed with it through what sounds like a tough few years?. I`m not claiming to know them or whatever, I`m just trying to say maybe they werent proud of WHAT you were doing as such, but more proud of that you were DOING it. As for the money, like I said you might always start another business after you`ve had a break for a while, and no education is completely worthless. But most importantly $300k might be a lot of money, but for happiness and sanity? their priceless. to summarise, ending this seemingly bad adventure brings you one step closer to next no matter what field you go into. So I say, call it a day because tomorrow might be a lot better. Goodluck anon I hope it all works out for you .
