Hi Zuzu This sounds like the work you do in those 8 hours is either: 1. Not challenging enough or 2. Too much for one guy (you) to handle. You're zoned out.

Hi Zuzu This sounds like the work you do in those 8 hours is either: 1. Not challenging enough or 2. Too much for one guy (you) to handle. You're zoned out. Figure out which one it is. There are meditation techniques to give your mind the space and time to think about this. A simple break (a week or more) away from the work is often good enough for me while my mind subconsciously processes things. (Don't do any work during this break!) If you find that the work is not challenging enough, change your environment, move slowly into more and more challenging work where you feel the feedback of accomplishment re-energises you. If this move is based on a request to a boss, client etc and it falls on deaf ears, start looking for another job/client. If the work is too challenging, ask for sensible deadlines (fuk I hate deadlines!), scope reductions and a kinder work environment. If this request of yours falls on deaf ears, start making plans to quit for an alternative that is better. The fact that you picked this up is already a good sign. Good luck!
