For a long time, I took every difficult shift home with me. Every mistake, every tough interaction, every moment I felt like I fell short. Learning to genuinely close the chapter when I walked out the door was one of the most important professional skills I ever developed. How do you mentally leave work at work?

This took time and age for me. Now that I'm older I leave work at the door. It has been a lot better for me mentally.

Totally, but once you start leaving work at work, it really does make such a difference mentally. Way less stress carrying over into your personal life.

This was the most pertinent book which I picked after getting rejected from all of MBB at the resume stage or never hearing back from boutiques like OW despite getting in all the networking, resume review sessions and referrals in. The frustration only intensifies absurdism lol.
In hindsight, Existentialists are not the best people to read during dwindling confidence xD. Great book though otherwise
