That's the ultimate goal of work, isn't it? To make as little money as possible and to suck your soul out of you.

Yeah I def feel you. Hard to break out of this cycle. The imperfect way I try to fix it is to go hard at work for 5-6 hours instead of 8. Gives you an extra couple hours of unwind every day

qwwerty11436yFind hobbies which are different from your job. If you start to hate/be bored by your job, you won't be able to escape to and enjoy your hobbies at home otherwise, because they'll be the same/work as reminder.
Happened to me. Did not believe it 5 years back, when a friend told me the same.
&& yes, requires to stick your head out of the comfort zone and often try something completely new and unfamiliar (not an easy task for most IT ppl)

When I’m at work I can’t wait to get home to work on personal projects only to get home with no energy and just procrastinate and/or play games entire weekend/afternoon.
Think is i also feel extremely guilty if i try to relax and do nothing, but at the same time able to understand that i need time to chill, just can’t get in a positive mindset about it. Am i the only one?
