I am totally not motivated at work. The reasons range from me having absolutely no chemistry with my immediate boss, being disillusioned with the leadership team, and feeling overwhelmed with work. These led to me feeling unappreciated, and disengaged. There were days where I totally didn't want to go to work. And this is probably why I have been feeling exhausted and prone to falling sick these days. But despite the strong desire to move on, I am still working becos I want to:
- Complete the course I am currently attending first (by Aug 23)
- Settle my new hire in properly (possibly by Oct 23? Nov 23?)
- Stretch my current salary for as long as I can...
So for as long as I am still in my current company, I will continue to be professional and do what I need to do. And while at it, I hope to be able to do:
- Establish a new stream of steady income
- Establish a network of professional contacts
To be really honest, stretching my current salary for as long as I can is not realistic as I need to devote energies to the latter 2. It would be wearing me too thin if I were to do them while working. And even as I am writing this, it is clear to me that I have been circling around and around the whole idea of financial stability. And this, I reckoned, is based on the assumption that I will be a lot worst off once I lost my current source of income. Perhaps I am just too risk averse and have made unjustified assumptions that I will not be able to earn a reasonable income to sustain after I resign. Maybe...
I think should take a leap of faith and just resign when the time comes.
And that time is Oct 23? Nov 23?
