I am afraid of taking on a consulting role despite of being interested in the work because I consistently find myself struggling to get out of bed or having the courage to do work.

I think exploring something you are interested in could be a small step to getting more motivation. Courage doesn’t always come naturally for all of us, but we can build it through experiences that help us learn and that give us confidence over time. I know it’s not easy. But, some of the biggest decisions I’ve made, some of which didn’t turn out the way I imagined (good and bad) helped me learn things that that I wasn’t expecting and helped me realize more who I am and what I want.

If you are interested in this I say go for it! No matter what happens you’ll learn from it :)

Hey guys!!
My CTC is 5LPA
YOE is 7 years
I've been offered the position of team lead/ consultant in Accenture Operations.
Glassdoor mentions the salary range as 9LPA to 14LPA
Is is fair to ask for that range? Given my CTC is so low?
How much should I ask for?

Like take care of yourself, it's ok to feel such and such, etc. I'm still newer to therapy so wondering if that's the common experience?
