I'm 26 years old, almost done with my higher education, working in my 2nd job in the second year of work and yes I am in career limbo. All I've been doing is staring at the computer screen for the past two days, yes i may be learning something new through what I research but what i'm getting is being lazy, demotivated and frustrated with my life.
And unfortunately I have become one of those unusual creatures now who wants work or something to be engaged with rather than let their mind let loose like wild goose ( I do this alot anyways, so no need of doing it more). So it is pretty damn difficult to be like this, specially after doing the work of 10 odd people for over a year all by myself. It seems as if I have fallen off of a cliff, and a steep one at that.
So yes im getting lethargic, incredibly lazy and is wondering what to do next. I am hoping this is going to be temporary but to be even temporary this is definitely a bad time! I thought of learning a language just to occupy my weekends so that it doesn't suffer the same fate as my weekdays. But career wise due to my own decisions im stuck between a rock and a wall. This is because my prospect of landing a new job this soon is pretty damn thin. My mistake I know completed my academics in due time, got selected to local uni, did my professional qualifications engaged in community and voluntary work and blah blah but still here i'm unable to land anything substantial.
And it doesn't help your moral when your friends talk about their work life and how occupied they are, what their salary is (and mine is on average one fourth of my friends salary, its hard to even hang around now). Life is getting complicated, well its actually simple, there's absolutely nothing! But thats what makes it complicating as well.
So be wise, dont get stuck in career limbo!
