This is not new but worth noting. Since everything in life goes in cycles so is our attitude to work. Feeling of hopelessness, that your career is going nowhere, disappointment with your company, colleagues. Anyway it is very challenging to walk away and dismiss such feelings especially when you're engulfed by them.
They leave me staring inside myself and finding no inspiration to move forward. I end u procrastinating and avoiding any work, because the only question that comes to mind is : Who the hell cares about what I do/do not do?"
The sad truth is that really no one cares. Regardless whether you feel pumped about your work, or like today you feel miserable. A job is a perfect example of the universal truth that all things pass. At work everything becomes "old news" as soon as the deadline is met. Once the presentation is delivered, few will be looking forward to revisiting it again. Once the project completes - new goals are set and no one looks back to the endless hours you have spent making the deadline.
So all the frustrations or happiness you feel now about what you do will ultimately pass with another deadline.
This deadline concept is very appealing - it always provides comfort knowing that even when I feel like quitting it all, I know there will be another "deadline" that will bring this emotion to a close and move me on - "this too shall pass"
