Bored of my Life and Job..

August 13, 2018 9:52am CST
Hi friends... As you can see from the title of this post, I am at a point in my life where I am totally bored of my life and especially my job. I work at an International Bank and I am working for last 6 years. Everyday it's the same routine and same work that I have to do. I am really tired and frustrated now. I feel like I have lost all motivation and the will to do something. Everyday its such an uphill task just to wake up from the bed and go to work. Sometime I feel, is it really worth it. Do we really need to suffer so much just to earn a living. Sometimes I don't get the point of all these. Do you guys also feel the same??

It's hard. We strive to reach our goals....then what? I guess I've learned to dream differently. I am where I want to be in my life, but have a few more details to accomplish before I GET to where I want to be. I can say my dream has changed as I've gotten older. Maybe it's time to re-evaluate what you find important, then make a change from there. Our goals change as we grow as people. Maybe this is your turning point in your own goals for yourself.

You have rightly said it. Our goals and aspirations do change with age and we also need to adapt to it.

Well I am a lawyer by profession and as you said a routine life is bound to make you feel dull and bored but I try to entertain myself whenever I get free time. MyLot is a wonderful place to meet friends from all over the world. Beside that I listen to music, read books and watch news. I too get up very early and whole day it is the mundane same work but I try to enjoy my work as far as possible. I don't take stress and avoid running after money. That's it! Besides that I put my burdens on God, pray and go to sleep with a free mind.

@akashray1990 That's a good media to entertain as well. Don;t worry so much coz life is short and the only thing is to enjoy and be happy.

@akashray1990 That's definitely good media to entertain oneself but we must keep in mind that life is short we must see to it that we are happy with what we are doing.

I've been there! I can relate to what you feel! Try to do some vacation, have you tried to ask for a leave vacation at least 1 or 2 weeks? It helped me when there are times that I feel bored or tired of my work, if this one doesn't help you, Try to look other jobs, I've been on the same company for a couple of years already then I decided to apply to a different company to have a different environment which really helped me. After trying to work with a different company and feel bored and tired again, I decided to apply again to a different company. You just need to have a different environment or culture to be inspired again to your work, There are times that I resigned to a company and promised to my boss that I'll return again after months or years. Sometimes you just need a different environment to enjoy working again, but if you're afraid to lose a job, then go ask for vacation leave, It'll work!

try to love your job and if you are looking for another one, change your personal routine. Wake up in the morning and do something different. Workout, ready a book and have a busy morning or evening all by yourself
