How do I stop looking at this shitty dead board and force myself to look for a job?
>>
none of us know lel

I was looking for a job and then I found a job
Heaven knows I’m miserable now

Yeah but the knowledge that I could've made thousands in the time i spent neeting while suffering probably the same amount makes me sad

In my life
Why do I give valuable time
To people who don’t care
If I live or die

Little by little? I do the Pomodoro method. Or reverse Pomodoro (work/apply for work during the short periods, recreate during the longer ones).

Put on music in the background. Automate the process as much as possible. Make a document with the information to copy and paste, do it en masse without thinking too hard.

Approach it without shaming yourself. Reward yourself with praise or healthy treats when you do work towards your goals. Do not curse and kick yourself for slipping. Do slightly less work towards your goal, then be kind to yourself for getting back on the horse.

Watch a show or movie, or read a book, where someone is determined about reaching a goal against great odds. Training montages. Anime with underdog protagonists. Use that kind of framing to look at this, instead of telling yourself how much it sucks and how needlessly unfair it is*.

Good luck anon/nona!

*for the record, it does suck and is needlessly unfair. I'm not saying pull yourself up by your bootstraps and things are fine and you're lazy or whatever. I'm saying that pessimism, even warranted pessimism, is not useful as a motivator.
