Have you ever experiencing waking up and then you don’t know what to do next? It’s not long since I started working, yet I don’t feel any excitement going to work anymore. I only felt that excitement on my first two weeks then after that, no more. I don’t know why, but most of the time, when I’m sitting there in front of my laptop, my mind only think of resigning but I can’t, I’m afraid that when I do that, I won’t be able to find a job again. I don’t know what to do anymore.
Same here. In my case it’s so hard to move forward if your superiors has a trust issue to all your ability and skills in dealing with the task given to you. And also I felt like I don’t have freedom to speak up for myself or defend or explain myself. It was like it’s a crime to say No or give explanation to your supervisor. Instead of scolding your member if they fail to the task, talk to them like asking them what’s wrong and you are ready to listen to them. Sometimes I was like I want to resign but same thought, I’m afraid where do I go next.
I can definitely relate to this. I am an advocate of compassionate leadership because I believe that leaders should be looked up to as roles models, so being compassionate should be a critical trait. When my leader talked down on me, I felt disrespected as a professional. I dealt with it on my own by talking positively to myself. I wish leaders would be empathetic, so they’d see how their employees feel when they scold them.
Find something that will make that excitement spark again. Maybe you are just burned out.
I feel unmotivated at work today because, I feel I will no longer move up from my current position due to my condition.
