Description

I feel like every time I give it my all things fall apart on me and now when I try to put effort into something I have a subconscious fear of going back to square one again.

Dear Eric: I’m a 46-year-old man who is on my third career. In my past careers, I have worked myself up from the bottom to middle management roles taking on more responsibilities than I could handle and getting fired after asking for help and having asked for added tasks to go elsewhere. I’m now in a position where I feel stuck. I have no motivation to do anything more than bare minimum and spend each day waiting for 5 p.m.
