GOOD MORNING 🌅
That sounds like a tough situation to be in. It’s easy to imagine that doing nothing all day might feel like a dream, but when it leaves you feeling unfulfilled and disconnected, it can weigh heavily on your mental health. The lack of meaning or contribution in your work can definitely create a sense of stagnation.
It’s good that you recognize how this is affecting you and that you value having a purpose in your work. Maybe this is an opportunity to start exploring roles or projects, even within your current job, that align more with your desire to help and contribute. You could also use some of your downtime to invest in developing skills or passions that might prepare you for a more meaningful role in the future.
The fact that you’d take a pay cut for something more fulfilling speaks volumes about your priorities. It might be worth looking into jobs that balance flexibility with purpose, or even brainstorming ideas for starting your own business in an area you feel passionate about.
Change can feel daunting, but it sounds like you’re already taking the first step by reflecting on what truly matters to you. 🫂🤙💜
