Why do you feel like you're not meant to work a 9-5?
Because a 9-5 runs on someone else's agenda all day, and a lot of people want some of the day for their own. You don't have to quit to feel better, start by taking back time from the repeat parts of the job.
Rather watch? It's 62 seconds.
Start with time back.
Notice what drains you most
The tasks, the hours, or the boss?
Get one hour back
Hand off one repeat task.
Use that hour for your thing
Small and steady.
Decide big things rested
Big calls go better with energy.
