I don't remember who said this but, "Pray to catch the bus, and then run as fast as you can."

While I think in some situations it is okay to quit a job before having another job lined up, it's a tremendous act of bravery of spirit and it requires tremendous follow through. You've set yourself up for hard work and now you have to do it.

It's natural to feel scared and down from time to time. It's also natural to feel some envy from time to time. And if you don't express it, and learn from it, it will get the better of you. But make sure you spend time working on your skills, your tools, your character, your health...all the things you need to run as fast as you can.

It's not just a matter of putting out your resume. It's a matter of making room in your life for success.
