I got fired early this year. Today I'm living my dream life. Seriously! I am so grateful for being kicked into living, not just being! I'm building my RU-vid channel, started earning money as a coach after 2 months, I set my own schedule, I am my own boss. Beats being a 9-5er in corporate every day! One door slammed so hard in my face it woke me up to the unlimited possibilities of our world! Getting fired can truly be an amazing thing if you let it! 😊
Love ur comment “kicked into living”. I’ve been in a job I hate for 10 years. Extreme burnout. Just got fired after 3 months. I did it to myself. If u loathe what u do, ur gonna passively do things to remove ur self from that job
this makes me happy, but sad also because we may never get to see people do extraordinary things they are capable of because they simply stopped chasing their dreams..
+Bobbie Kom To be fair if one door closes another might open so we might still see people doing extraordinary stuff, just not what they initially thought it would be. Like sacrificing the career to be a parent or something.
I've had 11 jobs and one internship the past five years. I have been fired from six of them, abandoned one of them, and the rest I quit. I don't feel bad about being fired, abandoning or quitting these jobs because these jobs were destroying my mental health. I am sure I will get fired or quit my current job because it too is still making me underemployed and I am not utilizing any of the skills I have acquired in my degree or through online learning. The one glimmer I had was my internship this past summer. I got a gleaming letter of recommendation from my manager. The point is, my summer internship is as close as I have been to my dream job, a job in which I can finally say to myself "I feel worthy.". I hope that day will come soon.
glad I am not alone in this job being fired... following my dream now !!! watch this space. Thanks Steve. God bless - or like we say here in Kenya - Mungu hukubariki
Steve's a real success story. There's another 10,000 guys who quit their job for the same reason and probably had to go crawling back to boss man or end up on the street.
Not really "Sunshine", you only say that because you know how it turned out for him , what if your brother come knocking at your door right now and says he's quitting his job and leaving his wife and daughter to become an actor , would you say the same encouraging thing to him ?
A self-centered employer wouldn't attempt to advocate for a man's well-being and his family. A self-centered employer would try with all their might and rig the working system to get a good man fired.
He quit out of intention & faith and was hesitant.. he had a pure heart when quitting, he didn’t quit obnoxiously or in spite thats why the universe rewarded him.
I got fired today from my Job , looking at as if it’s a blessing . There’s nothing in this life I would rather do then sing and dance ! Your next R&B Artist is coming out soon
@@671brayan There's also people who see the realistic outcomes in everything. Opportunities like this come to people very rarely. People who are successful in their pursuit are even rarer. If his colleague hadn't walked in at that exact moment, he might be still selling insurance now. It's a mixture of incredible luck, tremendous risk-taking, and amazing talent.
Mr. Steve Harvey, you are an inspiration to all young and old people as well, thanks for sharing your personal experiences online,i am 50 years OLD now, but i still learning from you, MY BEST REGARDS FROM SAUDI ARABIA
I've been let go 1x for financial reasons and 2x for performance reasons. It's genuinely not that embarrassing. What's embarrassing is never trying to figure out what you want to do and staying in jobs you don't care about
Hasn't panned out that way for me. It's led to nightmares and isolation, heavily diminished personal value, difficulty functioning, and zero ambition. You want to find people with empathy, compassion, who can talk sense, good luck.
He's right. Too many people are scared to go for their dreams. Am I put you through our shells to begin with or am I put you through her shelves in the long run but there are hardships going to come whether you are with a job that you hate or that you're chasing your dreams. Sometimes you got chase your dreams. There are things out there to help you out if you follow a hard times of money
i thought he got fired from the insurance job because he flipped a table on one of the customers....that's the story he told on some other ask steve lol
on another video he said that from the insurance company he got fired (not quit)becouse he flipped a table on the customer who canseled his 3000 deal- profit
Hope you have crown the guy that helped you attained your dream with just a piece of Advice “will you let this dream killer stop you from achieving your dream?” With showers of blessings? The tongue is so powerful, may God surround us with the right people
Ed from my job recently and to be honest I'm more happy if anything because the place was becoming really bad with us being overworked anyway. I'm glad I'm not there to deal with pain in the asses
Fired 8 times and laid off 3 times. Moved over 14 times. Forced out of rentals. Denied any chance at marriage through the prime of my life. Lost the majority of the friends I managed to ever make. Middle aged. Too old to start a family. Living on savings. Biological family won't listen, has no empathy. Not sure I want to get back up and go back into a system that's abused me before, so I can earn a stupid buck.
And i got fired two times from the same job cause i was only temporary (thats what i can find right now ) and i am an almost 25 woman that still cant find an stable job !!!
he did - he was living out of his car for 3 years but he got there in the end. The thing about your dream job - it doesn't just turn up. You have to work hard and sacrifice a lot and back in the 70's and 80's it was far worse financially to chase your dreams than it is now. plus a lot less racism involved, too. Well, unless you want to be a cop and ya black.
There is no guarantee you will ever make it, hundreds of thousands try and many fail. Steve was just a lucky one is all. No matter how hard you work your dream isn't guaranteed this just worked out for him. That is all. Many funny guys have ended up bad its the way it is.
0:05 chick in yellow, isn't that the one from the clip where she asked how she could stop running her mouth so much saying 'your teeth are running to the front', titled 'he tried to kill me'?
Well regarding my sketchy job history: I just found out, that there is a woman, in my life, I call friend. And she opened my eyes because she said, "You are my plant!" I said, "how the hell am I her plant, when she's only 12 years older than me?" And its offensive to me, because I thought she was being friends with me, because we were a the same church. But the whole time, turns out she could be my relative, and I could be a spy. Now I have issue with that, because I pride myself on being integral. So I would never spy against any country. So one of the main reasons I registered with immigration was to prove I wasnt a spy, mole, or terrorist. These are legally defined words. But as you can see, during the hours of 8-5, I am talking alot on Steve's videos. They are for spies. So, the USA saw this in me. Even my beloved Egypt saw this in me. I couldnt believe it. So the pain I had all those years, about getting temp jobs, then getting replaced, or fired, was because I was a canvasser, or an opener. And I hate that. The embezeller or the "spie" was always doppled behind me. So I got fired on purpose. This is why I cant reopen my door in the USA.
Like Steve always says. If you don't take advantage to make your opportunities of your dreams happen in real life? They'll never come true or help you succeed in life?
I almost got fired when I took a bucket and poured bleach and ammonia onto the COVID unit and then ran to hide... the fireworks was fun... police, fire department showed up.. for even more fun, i called some families and told them that there grandfather just died.. they were upset,, i got a PIP cause they couldnt prove it was me
