No real energy, no connection to what you&#8217;re doing, no motivation to really make a difference. On the outside everything seems normal, but on the inside the plug has long since been pulled.  <br\/><br\/>The tricky thing is that many stay anyway. Out of habit. Out of fear of change. Or because they convince themselves that it &#8220;already fits&#8221;. But that&#8217;s where the real problem lies. Because if you spend eight hours a day somewhere you don&#8217;t want to be, it never just affects your job, but your whole life. You take this feeling home with you, into your relationships, into your everyday life.      <br\/><br\/>And perhaps the crucial question is not whether you have resigned internally.
