There is a feeling of emptiness. Why do I feel resistance towards everything?

Hello, host.

First of all, I want to say that I understand what you're going through and I'm sorry you're feeling this way. I want you to know that I'm here for you and I'm sending you a big hug to let you know you're not alone.

I can relate to the emotions you're describing. I'm not sure if everyone goes through this kind of confusion more or less as they grow, but I've been in this situation before.

It's like suddenly not being able to find the meaning of life, not knowing why people live, not knowing where their value lies. You feel empty and lost inside, restless and at a loss, tired of resisting and feeling like you don't fit in with the world.

These psychological reflections actually show how empty and barren our inner world can feel. Not having some spiritual support and substance is like an unfillable black hole.

As you mentioned, it's easy to feel bored or resistant when doing anything, right? I feel like I'm only half-hearted and enthusiastic every now and then. Maybe this is because after entering society, I haven't found my own position, haven't been able to correctly and well find a position of my own in the workplace, and haven't been able to truly integrate into society and achieve self-harmony.

In fact, many times, when faced with certain situations in society, we are always at a loss for what to do. As you said, you are actually very dissatisfied with your current situation, and you feel like you can't do anything right.

As you mentioned, you felt more and more discouraged as you prepared for the internship. However, from the start, you've already planted the seeds of doubt, and you feel like you're not up to the task. This will create a self-imposed barrier. In other words, you'll find reasons to justify your actions, and you'll be self-serving. This means you'll likely find reasons why you can't do something well, just like this kind of mood reflects.

I can see why you're confused. You haven't yet found a source of inner strength, a way of dealing with the outside world and standing up for yourself.

This is the current state of confusion for most people. They know their current situation isn't right, but they haven't found their interests. They also feel like life isn't what they want, and they don't know what to do.

But in reality, we often indulge in these emotions and it's tough to break free. I'm grateful that the original poster was able to wake up in time and seek help because self-help means that only you can save yourself and only you can get out of this mess.

So my advice to the original poster is that we all know we can't indulge in such emotions and feelings because over time, it is actually very difficult to really devote yourself to doing something.

But often, we feel like we don't know what we want. What should we do? It's because we haven't taken action. Sometimes we feel like the answer will become clear as we go along.

The host said that the more you understand your industry, the more you feel disgusted and then you don't want to go to work. Have you ever imagined a different scenario? A different situation? Do you really dislike and hate him that much, or is it just that you are encountering insurmountable difficulties at work? Or do you really want to change careers?

If you're interested in changing careers to challenge yourself, it's worth doing. You're still finding yourself, trying and making mistakes. You're not yet at an age or point where you can't afford to fail.

If you're the type of person who avoids trouble, doubts your abilities, and believes that any approach is acceptable, you'll never venture beyond your comfort zone or make significant progress.

My advice to the original poster is to tackle the most pressing tasks first. Read more, exercise more. Even if a task seems inconsequential, taking the time to complete it can yield long-term benefits.

It's like going to the gym to get in shape. Self-discipline is a rare quality, or you can read a few pages every day, or you'll discover something different.

But waiting is never the answer. If you really take action, implement, and get things done, you can take a blank piece of paper one afternoon and make a list of what you're unhappy with, what you don't want, what you want, and what you want to try. Then you just go for it, instead of wallowing in the predicament of the moment.

I hope the original poster finds happiness and joy.

Good day. I am a heart exploration coach. I find that everything is straightforward. I see that your question is why you feel resistance to everything.

It is unclear when this began, but regardless of the task at hand, you quickly become bored and resentful. You lose interest in games quickly, and your enthusiasm for sports lasts only a few days. Since starting your internship, you have become increasingly disheartened. As you gain more knowledge, you feel more resentful.

After graduating and changing careers, you initially found the transition acceptable. However, as time passed and you gained more knowledge about your current industry, your negative sentiments intensified. You experienced an increasing sense of apprehension about going to work and, subsequently, struggled to control your urge to stay up late, fearing that as soon as you opened your eyes, you would have to go to work.

You perceive this state of mind to be erroneous, noting a pervasive sense of emptiness, lack of excitement, difficulty maintaining interest, and a lack of desire for or interest in life. Additionally, you express a sense of incongruence between your current life and your self-perception. You seek guidance on how to address these concerns. I will endeavor to respond to your inquiries.

I can see that initially, when you were engaged in an activity or playing, your emotional state was positive. However, after a period of time, you reported a shift in your feelings, stating that the more you learned, the more you disliked it. This has led to feelings of rejection and fear towards the industry you have been working in for most of the year.

I suggest that the questioner read a recently released book in Hong Kong and Taiwan, which is currently only available in traditional Chinese characters in mainland China. The book is entitled "Don't do what you love, be yourself," and a summary of its contents can be accessed via the Yixinli Reading Club.

This book addresses the topics of career planning and burnout. It posits that an individual's ability to persevere in the long term is contingent upon their alignment with their core qualities and values. It suggests that doing work that one is passionate about is a key factor in maintaining long-term motivation and preventing burnout.

What factors contributed to the individual's inability to persevere with multiple tasks? As you progressed through your upbringing, were there any tasks you were able to persevere with?

You have indicated that the more you know, the more you dislike it. Could you please elaborate on what specifically you dislike? You may wish to consider identifying any commonalities in the aspects you have found disagreeable.

I recommend that the questioner take the time to reflect on their own values and aspirations. To assist in this process, I suggest the following questions be considered:

1. When you are alone, what are the three things you would most like to do?

2⃣️ In a group of three or more individuals, what are the three items you would prefer to keep private and why?

3⃣ If you were to have no fear, what would be the three things you would most like to do?

Identify the common thread between the three questions and write an autobiography, "Who Am I?" Spend 5 to 10 minutes each day writing freely, without interruption, about your current, past, and future thoughts and experiences. This will help you gain insight into your personality, relationships, and worldview.

The questioner is encouraged to take an MBTI test, choose a job that aligns with their personality traits, and identify opportunities that match their skills and interests. This process will help the questioner gain clarity and confidence.

I hope the questioner will be able to resolve the confusion soon, and I wish you the best of luck.
