Happy people don’t post. Anger/frustration is a stronger engagement factor than satisfaction/happiness.

After working for myself for 2 years, I got burnt out. I was only doing it as a stopgap solution during the pandemic when nobody was hiring and I still needed to support my family. As a solo-preneur, wearing every hat for the business was just mentally & physically draining. Now I'm working for a great company in a role where I can just do the tasks I enjoy doing (building relationships, closing deals). That is what cured my burn out.
