Life is good, must make sure to enjoy yourself while you work. Work 80%, play 20%.

Irl I’m being realistic. How many of us no need to work and no need take care of home? Take up this tasks already how much of us left for ourselves realistically
Don’t think 10-20% is correct representation even if one is workaholic. For me I work 11 hours on weekdays , without much involvement in family matters. Weekends for family and loved ones. Even that, 5/7 is 71% . 80-% is a heavily work focused lifestyle.. work life balance should be 50-60% work and 30-40% loved ones and oneself

How old are you?
You sound fatigued n depress.
40 this year

I think my job is demanding and not really what I like.

plus I don’t really get to rest during weekends cuz of family commitments.

also the fact that I have no gf no wife makes me feel like I don’t have to work so hard and can take things easy . Also why work so hard since I’m gonna be alone anyway, just need to feed myself. Someone I’m not the type who must travel often or must buy car n Rolex those type

Ahh ok I get you now. Ok my definition of work also means errands takes 2-4 hours eg my family needs clothing noodle veg fruit eggs milk bread biscuit n bla bla provisions I go get it for us ; the clothings need to be ironed need1-2 h and it becomes part of my “work” time as I’m not doing something fun and cute with them although this facilitates something that can serve us later.

live for yourself, that includes finding and realising what makes your existence meaningful

assume responsibility for every aspect of own life, this is to avoid charsiew statement like didn't choose to be born

stop whining

i normally throw away whining fans and motors coz hopeless to repair

last time got old cpu with weak fans in bedroom
started whirring woo woo woo.. during 7th month
took me a while to get back my sanity

I think it’s also probably due to the stress I give myself

im trying to be a good employee at work
Trying to be a good employer to my maid
Trying to be a good son to my father

end up everything I give my best and make my employer, my maid and my dad’s life as good as possible. Then I neglect myself and always feel damn tired and burn out.

my weight dropped from 61kg to 57kg to 52kg over the past 8 years? I’m not bui bui as u can tell from my weight. In fact I’ve been losing weight rapidly over the years

I’ve been thinking cuz of the stress I feel at work and the stress at home that’s why I always feel burn out and feel like quitting job

it’s either I buy my own property and move out, then continue working and visiting my dad on regular basis, so at least I have time to rest.

or I continue to stay with my dad at his place, but then I quit my job and change to a very relaxing part time job.

That way I eliminate one of the stress factors and will burn out less quickly

but now wanna buy house also difficult

resale so costly. Bto apply liao always unsuccessful
