It is indeed a nature for a human to always look for his comfort zone as much as possible. In getting a job for example; at first you are so inspired about going to your office. Everyday you go to the office early sometimes earlier than a required time, you work with enthusiasm. But, suddenly the office environment change, specially the management. And the energy that was so high, suddenly fades away. Everyday day is a burden, the work that you've thought an inspiration is now the source of your depression. You can't go because you need some income. Now, you are in trouble; you are not working out of love but out of needs and responsibility. How are you going to heal the pain, to fight the discouragement that you have inside?

If that's the case, you need to look at the positive way. It is in reality that some of us are working not for their passion but for their responsibilities just like me.I simply look at the things I personally bought with my own savings or sometimes i look at the person whom I help in which i can tell myself that my effort of working seems not useless at all.

I think responsibility is also a motivation of working despite the fact that you are tired and exhausted :D.... Looking to the things you've achieve sometimes make you feel happy.

You are suffering from a burn out. I went to that phase when I was employed before so I took a long vacation which my boss allowed. He would call now and then to check on me and begged me to come back all fresh and new. The feeling of being wanted brought me back to how i used to when i first started working.

Yah, sometimes we do need a break. We aren't robot not to feel tired and stress. But, there are really people who think we are a superwoman :(, I'm happy to know that you were able to spend time for yourself and relax.
