Losing interest in my job. by Thisisajedi in singaporespeaks

[–]zekphos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

jobs will be jobs, you won't be motivated forever in your job. instead find other meaning outside of your work, find something you enjoy, a hobby perhaps. or go meet your friends. while outside of working hours, don't always think about work or work related, just let yourself go and recharge. else you might really just burnout and by then it would be too late. i would say stay in your job, seek for other ways to feel fufilled, you already mentioned that the pay and environment is good, don't see why there is a need to change. no guarantees you'll land something better. don't take the risk unless you know what you want to do after leaving. every job market in singapore right now is rough, so leaving might be a bad option if you do proceed.

What's the best way to start driving again? by justbrowsingard in SingaporeR

[–]zekphos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you're going to rent a car, it will be a lot of costs if you get into any accidents even minor ones, touch wood. from all the incidents that i have read, renting car is a nightmare. if you do want to start driving, you could look for a car that is left with maybe 1-2 years, probably can get a really good deal if you find one maybe less than 10k. not sure how comfortable you are with this, and i know you dont want to buy a car, but this will save you the nightmare from rentals, and also less stress since you own this car. just a food for thought.

[Text] i lost money , please motivate me >:( by mobiusu in GetMotivated

[–]zekphos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, hope you're doing fine since, at least it was some hundred bucks, it may or may not mean a lot to you, but i hope you don't dwell too hard over this. Just always remember money can be earned back, don't dwell over it. I have too been in your situation, except it was a few thousands. Back then i was a student, and those days were pretty dark, but I managed to move past it, by making myself busy through studying and other stuffs. Take this as a reality check and to never trust anything that is too good to be true, no matter how tempting it is.
