It’s that we’re about to evaporate most of the work people had to grind through in the next few years and the void of not having a story for work will lead to existential crises

Most suffering with work comes from people overly identified with the stories and narratives they’ve cooked up about what a good, successful, or even “normal” person is supposed to be doing with their adult life.
Most people’s desires come into conflict with these stories by the late twenties.
Then there is a choice
1. Ignore the feeling: my path until I was 32
side effects include: drinking, cynicism, health challenges
2. Face it: when I quit my job
Side effects include: triggering old friends with new questions you are asking, self doubt, uncertainty, excitement that’s hard to share
Neither path is ideal but almost everyone is happier eventually on path 2
Why?
Because it forces you to rewrite your narrative. It helps you see that your story isn’t fixed and you can rewrite it again. You’ll be able to notice the “stuckness” much earlier next time it emerges (it’s inevitable in life)
