Before You Quit: The Worksheet
Ten minutes now can save you from a decision you regret. Work through this before you hand in notice.
Quitting feels like the answer when you’re burned out, overlooked, or stuck under a bad manager. Sometimes it is. Often it’s the hiring system pushing you toward a reset you don’t actually need.
This worksheet helps you separate the two. Work through it before you make a move. It takes about ten minutes.

What the worksheet covers
What’s actually broken. Name the real problem. Is it the role, the manager, the company, or the system around you? You can’t fix what you can’t name.
What you’d lose and what you’d gain. Map the tradeoffs of leaving versus staying, without the emotion clouding it.
The fixes you haven’t tried yet. Most people quit before using the leverage they already have. This section finds it.
Your walk-away number and terms. Decide your real conditions before you’re in a heated moment.
The 30-day test. One concrete experiment to run before you decide anything.
