I grew up working class and I, and every else, never really had high expectations. But in my 20s some kind of drive kicked and I worked my balls off to become an executive and I am doing good now (40M). But tbh, I was never that interested in my career – it feels like I was driven to do it by a subconscious need and I still am, I am even up for promotion soon. I really don’t know why I am working so hard for a career that I don’t have much interest in and success I don’t really enjoy??
Any insights / similar experience?? I guess I am gonna hit the mid life crisis wall hard…
