"If You Always Do What You’ve Always Done, You’ll Always Get What You’ve Always Got".
The year 2020 was a mess for me. I have experienced real anxiety for the first time in my life, broke up with a girl I very much loved all though I think she's better off without me, and I've gotten deeper into the 9-5 grind, all while moving home to live with my dad and work remote from home.
I have only been action faking up to this point with some side projects, but improved my programming skills a lot (work as a software developer). I'm soon 22 years old and I have a solid job in a good country, Norway, but I can't continue like this. I'm going crazy just sitting in my room day in day out doing the same thing, and it's not like I can do much outside because of Covid.
I never really was the blame type of guy, I always stood up for my mistakes and worked hard, but now I just feel lost so I'm sorry if it sounds like I'm making excuses.
Since I was a kid I have loved reading and hearing about the USA and the American dream. The thought of just packing up my stuff and moving to some place warmer and sunny where I can network, get to know new people and chase the dream is so pleasing to me.
So a part of me wants to just quit my job and go do something. I feel trapped.
I think I need a change, something to get me out of my bubble...
I could move out here, I think that would help as it did before, but I would still be stuck in the same situation...
Any thoughts?
What was your F*ck this event?
How has Covid affected your life?
