“Conscious” Quitting
Beyond the buzz
Conscious Quitting is on the Horizon
Despite the increasing layoffs, a new study finds that quiet quitting is now replaced by an era of conscious quitting.
The researchers of this study never fully define conscious quitting; it is simply implied. The closest they get to saying what it means is: “It’s not just quiet quitting CEOs need to worry about. Thousands of employees told us that their company’s values and impact are now a resigning-matter. Welcome to the era of #ConsciousQuitting.”
The experts created Quiet Quitting and the Great Resignation as the trends of the future of work. But as a futurist I can say that more and more of us are questioning everything — regardless of what generation we get lumped into.
And that more of us are becoming aware that there is only life to experience. Meaning is becoming increasingly important, which is making us aware that we need to make conscious decisions about who we create with.
When we fully embrace responsibility for everything in our life, we claim our power to change anything, especially how we react.
The decision to no longer settle for mediocrity in our life has the potential to completely transform our entire existence.
