What do you mean by flying too close to the sun?

There’s a story about Icarus who had wax wings, flew too close to the sun, and plunged to his death. The quote from this story is something like when you don’t question something that seems too good to be true, there’s more reason to expect downfall. Just questioning here!

Did any of you ladies start having trouble sleeping till late once you turned 25-26?

But can’t fall asleep once I’m up. I’m also tired when I wake up so it’s not like I had enough sleep. I cannot live like this for the rest of my life.

I also don’t want them to be worried that “I’ll be too busy to do my job effectively”. What would you do?

I'm doing everything in my power to not quit without another job lined up, and every interview falls through. I'm overwhelmed by my clients, I've had enough corporate koolaid for a lifetime, I could not care less about what I do, and I've started exhibiting destructive behaviors at work but keep getting told I'm doing great.

If I'm going to be stuck here, clearly my attitude is the main problem. How have you learned to find joy in your job? What makes you feel like you matter here? Why stay?
