So this year I switched jobs and got a significant salary increase. I was hired to do one thing but ended up doing another, and due to budget issues we haven’t been able to do what I was meant to do. Also as much as I try to make an effort to get along with the team, they don’t share info with me and have made accomplishing what I need to do really difficult. I try to remind myself that there’s life outside of work but the truth is I feel really demotivated with work, I really struggle with getting stuff done and focusing. I find myself slowly but surely “shutting down” and the thought of having to do all this for the rest of my life makes it even harder.
Any tips? Have you felt like this? How did you overcome this?
