That's it! I've quit my job. Words can hardly describe how good I feel so I made a Steem dance video to help me with this.
I have been working at my other job for more than 10 years, so quitting it was a pretty huge move for me.
I plan on living on my crypto investments for a while and not necessarily on what Steem could potentially pay me. It just didn't felt right to work at my other job anymore. I was ready for something else.
The Video!
I created the dance video for a blog I wrote yesterday but I've talked myself into publishing this video mostly on its own.
The lyrics of the song somewhat make sense for the situation but that's mostly a coincidence.

Becoming A Better Person!
Steem has clearly been the biggest financial push in regard to helping me quit my day job but really the whole cryptocurrency space as been a real boon for me.
I want to use Steem and other cryptocurrencies as leverage to become a better person and help in the creation of a better world.
I'll let you guys know more about how I feel in my next post as well as continuing to help out create the world we all long for.
I'll use this post and the next one as well as the video to announce to my Facebook friends that I've quit my job. The vast majority of them don't know it yet. (My other dance video mentioning I made more than 100,000$ on Steemit has now 900+ Facebook views.)
Because the idea behind this post was mostly sharing this news, that's mostly it for this post.
