I’ve been knee-deep in spreadsheets and receipts at the same firm for what feels like an eternity. Don’t get me wrong – I love numbers, and there’s something strangely satisfying about balancing the books. But lately, I’ve been feeling a bit… stuck.
You see, despite my years of dedication and hard work, my paycheck barely covers the essentials. It’s a tough pill to swallow, especially when I watch my colleagues come and go, some of them staying for decades. It’s got me wondering: “How do people stay at jobs for decades?”
I mean, I get it – there’s comfort in familiarity, and maybe some folks genuinely love what they do. But for me, it feels like I’m stuck on a never-ending treadmill, spinning my wheels without making much progress. I’m craving some insight, some wisdom from those who have walked this path before me. How do they find the motivation to keep going, day after day, year after year?
