Question: does anyone have any tips on how to recover from burnout at work? I ask because I've taken the steps required to get myself out of an - unpleasant[1], let's say - work environment. I left my last job with a little bit of money in the bank, fully intending to set myself up as a freelance web developer; I did the research and planning work I needed to do before leaving. Everything was set to go - brave new chapter of my life etc. Three months later, I'm still sitting at home trying to find the will to take the first steps. I know what I have to do - network, hustle for contracts, build that killer portfolio site. Interact with the real world. But ... I feel like an old rabbit caught in the headlights, not knowing where to hop. I doubt my skills and abilities. As each day passes I make plans to do stuff, and then I don't do them. As each day passes, I become more convinced that nobody would employ me anyway - so why make the effort? I have absolutely no regrets about leaving my job. I felt, as I approached the fifth anniversary of my employment there, like a bomb primed and ready to detonate. Feeling that rage leach from my body in the weeks before and after my (planned) departure is one of the best feelings I've experienced in a long time. But the drive and determination I was expecting to feel in its place - it just hasn't turned up yet. And my cash reserves are running out. Food doesn't put itself on the table. Any advice on how to rediscover a missing Mojo would be very welcome! [1] Small company with a wonderful business plan which greatly helped me develop my tech and soft skills as I moved into the tech industry. Sadly their business plan didn't work well so they pivoted, and pivoted again, and again, until by the end I was the last software engineer in the office, doing work I actively hated. I came very close to closing my laptop and running for the hills twice, before coming up with a plan to manage my exit in a planned, civilised way. Nobody's fault. Just the way the world evolves.
