How do you guys get through workdays ?

I know most of us don't have a choice as we need to earn to make our livelihood, but what keeps you going day in and day out? Or do you just wait for the weekends. I think very few people get to do what they love doing. So how do you get through the week ? What do you tell yourself ?

Song by cage the elephant perfectly sums it's up:

"Oh, there ain't no rest for the wicked Money don't grow on trees I got bills to pay, I got mouths to feed There ain't nothin' in this world for free Oh no, I can't slow down, I can't hold back Though you know I wish I could Oh no, there ain't no rest for the wicked Until we close our eyes for good"

It’s either a grind or a drag if u r ambani. U need to keep urself challenged to keep life interesting enough. I just find many paradoxes and I’ve no idea why it’s like this

Sometimes you feel it's the only way, but sometimes you question "is it though?"

There’s 2 sides to this coin. You need to keep your work life challenging and you also don’t feel like working. I’m currently on notice period so, I still do my job well but I just stopped giving a F.
One way to get through a work week is, get a hobby. That’ll keep your week interesting enough. You work till 7,8,9 whenever.. and you can focus on your hobby after that. If you’re working from home, 🙃maybe do both in parallel if there’s a possibility. I like writing. In my case, it works.

Not sure if anyone feels completely exhausted during the weekends. My energy levels are decent during the week but come weekends and my energy levels crash. Apart from talking to friends, I have little energy to do anything else like rea...
