Burning out and quitting
For me, I&#x27;ve started feeling like I&#x27;m close to burnout. But quitting doesn&#x27;t really seem like a helpful option.<p>Could I actually take months off recovering? No. I&#x27;d have to immediately start leetcoding and remembering what all those trees are for so that I could become employed again later on. And risk having to take a job that pays way less than before.<p>Which brings me to my main point: I don&#x27;t see an option where the work ever actually truly ends. There&#x27;s always more. Always things I need to be doing. And until I have enough to retire, I have to keep grinding.<p>Vacation doesn&#x27;t help. It just puts me farther behind.
