[quote=Anonymous]I wish I was a career driven person but am just not, but am wondering if I can somehow get my ambition back. I was a National Merit Scholar, went to a top 5 university, have a joint JD and master's degree, but have somehow lost my ambition and am no longer career driven. I used to be, but after a series of career-related rejections I just stopped trying and caring. Now I guess that feel like the safer route is not to achieve, in order to not get rejected again. Work and excelling no longer interests me the way my mundane hobbies do. I enjoy my field (I am in the master's field of my joint degree), but really could take or leave working. I am content to be average in my job, and I don't really go above and beyond at work because I just don't have the ambition. Can I become career driven again? I've become so apathetic. I find that I have more motivation to take care of my house (clean, organize) than excel in my job.[/quote]
