    Decorating a workspace can definitely be motivating, but alternatively one can "undecorate" their workspace for motivation. My last six months at my dissatisfying job, I literally removed all my personal items from my office, even my favorite coffee mug ! Somehow, not having any personal property in the office or at the company made the idea that I would soon be leaving feel much more real.

    Sometimes, jumping from one job to another can be like jumping from a frying pan right into a flaming 🔥
    The new job may even turn out to be much worse than the previous one!
    Ultimately, the ideal goal is to be self-employed and financially independent!
    And there are many pathways to that lofty goal!
    Each person needs to find their own unique journey toward that independence!

    Some employers are so toxic that even if you try to quit on good terms, they sabotage you when your new employer call them as a reference. They treated you so bad but dare you to quit so when you do, they become more toxic! Sorry for my english, i'm french by language. Thanks for your advice and i love your channel so much.

      Legally, any job must allow for breaks. Where I was only designated breaks were allowed. They tracked you if you left your desk at any other time because we were a call center. They'd report everyone's breaks to the entire department with hard-copies at meetings. A co-worker friend of mine used to call them the "potty reports". It was so humiliating and degrading, and this was at a very large, well-know, world-wide corporation.

    At one point in my life I was stuck in a toxic job for five years. It wasn't my manager who was toxic, it was the entire dynamic forced upon staff by upper management. I'd cry every day on my drive home from work, but the pay was so good I hung in there until I had something else lined up and had also paid off my car. To give you an idea of how bad the environment was: At one point 1/3 of my department was out on stress leave. Truth. I actually received a phone call one day from the head of HR for the entire corporation who was located in another state. She wanted to know how I was managing when so many could not. I told her I was considerably older than my colleagues with a long work history and attributed it to that. My last day on the job there was one of the happiest days of my entire life.

    This is just my opinion but when a job begin to make you physically and mentally ill it is time to leave. Some employers feel they own you instead of you working for them. They constantly piling on more work and will not raise your salary.

      I am in this situation right now. I get sick every 2 months like clock work. I’m a salaried employee that works over 50+ hours a week and do not get pad overtime because my manager said as a salaried employee I do not get overtime. It’s killing my soul. I work with untrustworthy and lazy people, and the person I’m suppose to count on as my right hand demands extra money every time I try to delegate work to him. So I am ready to quit. I’m moving to a cheaper accommodation, and will soon be able to save a little to quit for a month or 2.

    Just literally went through this. If you have a toxic boss who may sabotage your new job offer reference covertly ie great on written reference, but verbally leaves an unfavourable tone with the new employer, network with their boss / senior colleagues to give you a recommendation. Unfortunately I've had the pleasure of working with vindictive individuals

    I disassociate from my toxic employer as much as possible. That means limit my interactions to only necessary ones and switch to remote or hybrid schedules. Sadly this can only get you so far as your employer will make stupid decisions that negatively impact you without learning from it --they'll repeat the same thing so best to get out asap.

    I feel more lost now. We are not able to decorate our desks, or relocate our sitting position, I work with multiple toxic people (awful), there is NO work to do, HR have been unsupportive in the past (I've lots of evidence of employment law being broken, ready to sue when I leave). Mindfulness is my biggest friend. I put a single thought in my mind at the start of the day, I leave myself visual cues in my diary. I'm working on my next study exam to help my CV, and I've been applying for new jobs. Sadly a 3month notice for me. Thanks for your video as it has pointed out a couple of things, and has shown me I'm on the right track.
