“When I first accepted this job I thought I would be able to make a 9-5 and my content creation both fit in my schedule. I was wrong. I overestimated my ability to be present everywhere at once and to show up equally to all things I commit to. Unfortunately, it didn’t take that long to realise that if you commit to many things, you’re not actually committed to any. So I had to make a choice,” he wrote while posting the video.

“When it’s actually me thanking you for the immense love and support you show me. It will never be forgotten. This was not an easy choice, but as you can see, it was the one that made me happy. Excited to see what’s next for us,” he added and wrapped up his post.

Sometimes you just know and can't look back,” joined a fourth. “I quit my job after five years of full dedication until I was sick and then realised it was not worth it at all. Now I'm relieved and happily looking for another one but with a different mindset and goals,” wrote a fifth.
