What are some reasons programmers quit their high paying jobs?

I am quitting my job tomorrow.

I was hired by an Indian eCommerce giant 7 months ago. My job pays me enough to think that I do not deserve to earn so much yet. I was hired straight up from college and my salary is probably going to increase by half in coming months. My fellow employees are supporting and encouraging, my career growth can be exponential in a very few years and my resume will be good enough to have better companies hire me easily. And yet, I am quitting my job for a very simple reason- Sitting in an office all day is driving me crazy! It is sucking the life out of me and I want it back!!

I. Want. To. Take. Risks.

P.S. - Coming late- Second half of the answer.
