To quit or not to quit?

This weekend I did some serious thinking and soul searching. Should I quit my job or shouldn't I? If you've been following my blog, you'll know that I've set a goal at the beginning of the year to quit my job around this time (actually today) with R20,000 'non-employment' income per month. The date has come but not the income. So what am I to do? Was the quitting conditional on the income? Or was the income conditional on quitting? Or was quitting independent of income?

Well, after much soul searching (and discussion with risk averse parents - who have happened to be surity on some outstanding student loan debt) I've decided to stay on for a while at my current place of employment.

One of the weaknesses of my plan I've identified, is the issue of accountability. So far, I haven't been accountable to anyone. I'm a free man after all (see my list of life values in previous post)! But not having to answer to anyone (even self-inflicted) is detrimental to achieving my goals, so I'm hooking up with (at least) one like-minded individual, with the aim of hatching an accountability project.

Is accountability the answer? It might or might not be, but in the end, its also just a frame of mind. So once again I'm faced with a choice: do I want to be accountable, or don't I?

Choices...choices...(the fabric of freedom...and responsibility)
