Feel bad just 'going with the flow'
So I'm having a bit of a realization- I worked really hard to get where I am, but all really am at is the start. Made it in to the industry- took a lot of hard work. Not just studying for interviews, but I had to reshape my thinking and change how I interact with people in order to to refine myself in many ways. But getting here I was always looking forward to the next goal. I skipped on cycle recruiting, and at the moment I don't know what to do. I feel like I am learning a lot of a product of working- if given an assignment I'll make sure I do it right, but I don't feel like going out of my way to chase the next thing- and I feel like I'm doing myself a disservice as a result of that. I look to the future and 10 years from now I want to be doing big things, but I'm not sure if my thought process right now will enable me to do so, feels like I'm just kind of going through the motions.
Same bro… life is just an endless string of comments to turn in this job. Gotta get out methinks
The question is where. My dad worked in operations at a F500 and eventually made it to the C suite and had a loyal group of people he grew alongside, and the company valued him as a result. That seems so fulfilling to me, but this job will give us a skillset to deploy in any variety of industries. It's confusing.
Shit man. I feel this too. Was literally thinking the same exact thing over the weekend.
Hopefully we're just experiencing a temporary adjustment.
I hope so, but I look above me and it doesn't entirely seem so. It makes more sense to me why people grow old and resentful even if they are successful on paper. You can be devoid of purpose or fulfillment and just be a cog for your life if you just keep going along the path. Need to find a way to actively chase something inside or outside of work to lead a really good life.
That's life
Focus on doing one thing for a really long time. If you're having these thoughts you're going to get run over by people who live and breathe this stuff
So you have to either recalibrate your mind or find something else
