Why did you get into your line of work to begin with?
We’re prone to forgetting too easily the motivations that spurred us to take on something in the first place. You forget why you fell in love with your boyfriend. You forget why you wanted to have kids. You forget why you loved computers so much, that you could imagine spending the rest of your life with them. Everything was fine up until a few months ago. Then something, well, crumbled. The good news is you’ve not fallen out of love with your job. What you’re feeling is weariness with doing the same thing, 24/7 (well, almost). Think back to why you wanted this job in the first place. Don’t be surprised to find your toes tingling at the memory, and a cynical smile on your lips.
