Assuming you’re working full time and your job and commute take up the majority of your waking hours, how do you stay positive about life?
I used to be in the lucky position to do a job I loved. It didn’t pay very well but I enjoyed going to work every day. There were some tough moments and it was hard work and long hours, but it felt meaningful, I took pride in the work I did, and there were fun moments with a good team. After five years in that role, I changed departments, and after a year in my new role I’ve just lost all passion and drive, my work feels hard but meaningless, and I feel sad and lost.
What are your best tips, tricks, routines, strategies, hobbies, etc. that help you get the most out of the rest of your life when work feels miserable?
