Hi guys,

I have a question: today I realised once again that I find my 9-5 work completely meaningless.
Unfortunately, I had exactly the same feeling when I had my own company that I ran alongside my job. I made good money with the company, but after three years I closed it down because I also felt the work was pointless.

Since I am about to start a new company, I wanted to ask how I can prevent this from happening again (so that I can run the company motivated for a long time). Money alone is obviously not enough to keep me motivated in the long run. If that were the case, I would still have my old company (which I started only for the money, I must say).

I am thankful for any advice.
