If it’s not your true calling, then it wasn’t meant to be. Do not dwell on situations that can be changed for the better.

I feel as though this job is not the best fit for me and although I am very grateful to this opportunity, I feel as though someone else may be better suited to the job.
If you need me to continuing working while you find a replacement I am more than happy to do so. I want you to know that this is not a reflection of your company, but rather, a clash between my personality and the skills required to complete the daily tasks. I feel as though I will not be able to efficiently preform day to day and would rather tell you sooner, rather than later.

Well, thank the person for the opportunity to have worked for them and everything that you learned in your short time of working there. And just be honest in a nice way that something came available that you had been waiting on for quite some time and it was too good of a opportunity to past up. You can also tell them that you really hate to leave under such short notices but the other job wants for you to start right away. However, to prevent from putting them in a really bad bind you are welling to give them a two week notice, so that they can find someone else to replace you with.

Not every job is for every one. The most important thing in life is happiness. Your job is something you do just as much as being at home and you have to be happy while doing it. If you are not feeling happy with a job you just started give it a little bit of time some things just need getting used to. After you have gave your new job some time if you still aren’t feeling satisfied then speak to your direct manager. They should understand what you are feeling. Being honest and truthful is always the best route to take. You might even build a better relationship with your boss by having been honest and they can even serve as a reference for a new job for you.

Honesty is the best policy. Sit down with your supervisor and explain your feelings rationally, calmly, and clearly. It could be that the reason you're quitting is something manageable. Or, your employer may see your point of view and appreciate being notified. Very rarely does honesty backfire.

You can say that it is was not what you expected it to be and you want to find something more suitable with your professional plans.

Try to be tactful, and realize that you don't owe the company anything. If you quit, that is your decision. To make things easier, send an email or letter if talking face-to-face is too much. Make sure it's short, straight to the point and polite. Example: "Dear so-and-so, I'm writing this today to formally notify you that I will be resigning from my position here as [position title] at [company name]. My last day of employment will be [date] at outlined in my employment contract. I had a wonderful time here at [company] and am appreciative of all the professional guidance and support I was given. I am sorry to end my employment here prematurely. I wish you success in the future."

There's no need to say anything. But I guess being honest (with leaving a few details out of the conversation) might be the best for anyone - Maybe it just wasn't what you expected it to be like?

Just be honest with either your boss or human resources. Tell them why you don't want to work there anymore, there is no right or wrong answer but an actual honest answer is best in my opinion.
