Ah man I feel you. What helped a bit for me is relentlessly trying to get your career focused on only fun things. It's a long term strategy, but I am now a not-so-successful-yet entrepreneur but I do love about 95% of what I do and that makes me do things fast and without it feeling like effort.

That's what I did.

But now AI is threatening to ruin that.


The world is what it is, change is the only constant. Improvise, Adapt, Overcome. It is a mantra that brings positive outcomes. Try to love something in the improvise/adapt/overcome process that like or may learn to like, with time. Don't drop your own agency in a world filled with agents.

You can do it.
