Are you a parent?

If not consider yourself on easy mode.

Nope. In a way I'm perpetually stuck in "easy mode" as I doubt my ability to keep on working indefinitely, and these days generally everything has a cost to it...

I'm kinda sick of my working life, it's like a never ending repetitive cycle. I have tried changing jobs and while they're almost always fresh and exciting initially, I find myself going back to the state of asking myself what's the meaning of all this.

Me too. Paid well but itching to move on. Job pays well and great for people with young kids. I won't find another like it in Malaysia.

The problem u have is internal. Try shifting your mindset. You don't have to love your job but stop focus on the hate. Success is 80% internal and 20% action.

I have same like u before although I'm not out of the hole yet but shifting my mindset I'm happier than before. If need someone to talk deeper give me pm I'll try to help

People work to spend money outside of work. Nobody want to work. Just need to work.

most people i know face this problem.

you really need to find something you LOVE doing, and not just for the money

a good working environment, an understanding boss, friendly helpful colleagues. these matters than salary.

i love my job, i love my life, i make ok money, and i am thankful for where i am today.

find your purpose thumbsup.gif
