Yes. I was an aerospace engineer having the time of my life in a systems support/materials eval lab. I got promoted to an office down the hall from my lab where all the fun was going on (breaking airplane parts on purpose for the most part!). After the promo I sat in the office for six months and saw my future.
It was in another office upstairs somewhere.
After six months I quit my job and started my own company doing something I was far more interested in.
I was told by absolutely everyone that I was a fool.
But I was happier at my work and my quality of life was 100% improved. I got out of bed looking forward to every day. In the end I became more financially secure than I would have if I had stayed at my job, but it was the improvement in my quality of life that I cherish most.
