This Man Wants To Inspire You To Finally Follow Your Dreams

Mike Lewis found himself at a crossroads when he was 24 years old, feeling unstimulated working in the corporate world but too scared to quit. Eventually, he decided to take a leap of faith and started a company called When to Jump,  a platform for people to share stories about departing from their comfort zones to pursue happiness. 

In the video above, Lewis opens up about feeling dissatisfied with work -- a feeling far too common for many Americans -- and how he found the strength to follow his dreams. 

When to Jump is a curated community featuring the ideas and stories of people who have made the decision to leave something comfortable and chase a passion. You can follow When to Jump on Facebook , Instagram , and Twitter , and learn more about the Jump Curve framework here . For more stories like this one, sign up for the When to Jump newsletter here .
