9-5 Hell

2024.11.17

Going to the office is the biggest time-waste of all time.

Noise. Chit-chat. Micromanagement. My stomach hurts just by thinking about it.

There are infinite ways to get better each day. I could do hundreds of small things to better myself. Being in the office cuts most of these out. I cannot focus, everyone wants to talk.

They wanna talk because they are bored at home.

Yes, Sally, I’m very interested in what you ate on the weekend. Please tell me more.

This sounds like literal Hell to me. Not even networking. These people are not trying to grow. They are bored. Bored with their life. Bored with their job. Their solution is to whine to each other. And they want to make me one of them.

I refuse. I will quit if I have to. I’ll go in the office on Fridays, when no one is there. I can do my work, do my research, gather knowledge, not bothered by others.

I might sound antisocial. But I like people. I like talking to like-minded people. Emphasis on LIKE-MINDED. In a corporate office, there are no like-minded people.

What would I talk about with them? Biohacking? Fitness? Business? Marketing? How their side-hustle is going? What their plans are?

Ah yes, my plan is to go on holiday during the summer. I’ll just try to survive until then, and everything will be alright. I cannot wait. I hate my life. I hate my work. I don’t even enjoy holidays that much. But at least I don’t have to work during that week or two.

Yes, that sounsd like a dream come true. There must be a way out. I must find it. I MUST FIND IT.

I cannot do this for long now. I’ve tasted freedom. I know I can plan my day, do the work, be my own boss, find projects to work on. Continuously better myself. This is how I can function at my highest. Not by being in a cage, trapped in an office, trapped in a corporate job.

Start by doing. Start doing something. Work on a project. Work on a skill. Get better. 1% better each day. Repetition. Do the reps. Get better each rep. Take time to reflect. What works, what doesn’t.

This is the way to be free. Continuous work. Continuous growth. Get to the top. Choose a lane. Or create your own lane. Focus. Work. Grind. Grow. Become unstoppable.

The world is yours to take.
