    After 15 years dedicated to crafting websites, driving marketing campaigns, designing intuitive UI/UX, and spearheading growth strategies for diverse companies, I've taken the leap. A new, life-changing chapter beckons. It promises fresh tales, budding connections, and the opportunity to found or co-found innovative ventures — perhaps even with some of you in this very community. My excitement is real, and I'd love to resonate with those of you who vividly remember that pivotal moment when you decided to take the plunge and just... do it.

    Brave step, Karolis. While I haven't been in your shoes yet, I know what it means to quit the job to take on something that has new challenges every step of the life. I wish you very best in your new chapter and I'm sure you'll find some great fellows from this community. I also can't wait to hear from other fellow members who have been in your shoes already!

    Very nice! I have recently done the same. There's going to be a lot of self-doubt and figuring things out, but remembering this moment of why you made the decision will keep you going!

    This is amazing! Congrats! If you had lived 500 years ago, you would have been a pirate 🏴‍☠️, in contrast to a boring job on a big ship (today's corporations). I wish you all the best of luck!

    3 years doing the same that you did sir (Websites, UI/UX etc), and also just started building my own product! Hopefully one day I can quit my job too!

    This is amazing Karolis! Love to see people taking these huge leaps. Congratulations and good luck! Can't wait to follow your journey :) My husband and I did a similar thing this time last year - and we're still going. A complete rollercoaster - but so exciting. All the best!! :)

    That's great! It might (very likely) be full of unexpected things, but it's definitely worth it.

    Good luck with your journey, I quit my job last year and while the journey has had its fair share of ups and downs, it's the best decision I made. And remember, patience is the name of the game!

    Did you save up money, get funding, having income from a side gig? What have you the confidence to take the plunge?
