Elaborate and share tips on how we can do the same
Plan your vacations in advance, for the days you can get a lot of time off, go to a city you've never been. Utilize your weekends to visit a place locally or not to far away. I've been all over the state of Georgia to spots that have been dope :leon: get a couple of friends you can road trip with. Don't just go to work, come home, and sleep.

Yeah I do try to visit every city or town in my state and try new restaurants that I find on yelp.

Weekends aren't bad.

The hardest part for me is weekdays. Like...what do you do?

Weekdays its happy hour with some people weekly, hitting up networking/industry events, or committing to a hobby like working out and etc.. During football season me and my niccas always get up for MNF and TNF and we either hit up a bar or someone is throwing the gathering at their spot.

I'm over happy hours tbh.
Same shyt, different day.
I wish my close friends were near me :to:
I live nearly an hour from them.

I just need to focus on my hobbies like the gym and music and reading and writing.

I don't think I have the mental capacity to work an office job and deal with all the office politics that comes with. I would need something where each day there is something new about going to work. It's the main reason why I pursued a field where I have flexibility in work environment.

Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. :blessed: I could work in an office, but it's not my only option. Lab, factory/production site, among others, are options as well. It also includes the possibility of travel, which I like.

the best advice i can give..:manny:
is to either find a way to engage with your environment
or simply change your environment
if you can't find a halfway good fit after 3 or 4 tries
then "you" are the problem

b/c happy and productive people don't need a perfect environment to do their thing
:lupe: as unpopular is the sentiment might be..
95%+ of what happens in life is directly under your control
bad advice. Many of the most successful people in the world have failed over and over again. Take for example J.K Rawlings ( Harry potter person, spelling?) it took her over 10 attempts for her to get someone to take her seriously.

Americans get the least paid vacation time in the world - while other countries enjoy as many as FORTY days off a year
  • Employers in the US don't have to give their staff any paid leave - although many are paid for the 10 national holidays
  • By contrast, Brazilian workers get as many as 41 days off while Austrians get 38 days, including paid leave and national holidays

This graphic shows that Brazil, Bolivia, the U.K. and others parts of Europe lead the world in paid vacation time - whereas American workers are not legally entitled to any paid days off

To be honest, the day that you are born you become a slave to work. You spend the first 18-22 years of your life PREPARING for work and the next 40 years at the job 10-14 (commute time included) daily
