Passion died a long time ago
I remember the first time i saw a computer. It was in my school lab where we had to leave our slippers outside and go in(god knows why 😂), It was love at first sight. It was a gateway to infinite possibilities. Fast forward 15 years. My laptop brings me depression and anxiety. It is now a gateway to infinite problems. Companies are riddled with politics and the employees are just living dead bodies. Passion died a long time ago. It is now just a means to an end.

I feel the same but it's not the laptop or coding that killed my passion.... I love to use computers and code, watch, tinker, build ... it's the people and meetings that killed my passion....
Given a choice if someone can pay me the same amount monthly to just build, I would just code...
Wanna build a company? lol
Makes sense. This is why you avoid making a job out of your hobby. It does kills the fun out of it.
For me, signing up for a job that's not my hobby, rather my interest, has killed my passion. Like I don't want to show up at work, because what does it even mean!
Same experience here! We used to play Dangerous Dave and Road Rash in our computer lab. I was in 4th grade and fell in love with gaming that day and still game today. It’s been more than 2 decades of gaming now!
Seriously politics has killed all passion in a job
Us bhai
One thing that I understood from my experience is not to have expectations with things that could deeply affect us. I was passionate about xyz, now it's marred with abc, def... routine story. Remind yourself that it's not in your control. Just bother about what you can control/influence and try navigating accordingly. Good luck 👍
Explore other things which are linked to knowledge. IT world is moving fast af, pick something up, For ex- Agentic AI. start learning or atleast listen/read to things happening around it. How its helping business of client, which company is developing what, who is ahead of the race, which new model algos coming, what is future anticipating. This way your line of work will stay interesting. Dont stuck with office and team. Just pick anything.
Sorry man but you're alone for this
That's life. I would suggest you to take a small break and go on a trip and explore. Stay close to nature and just live in that moment
Take some time off
