You live more and more to work instead of working to live. However, this philosophy can bring an invoice, and a very large one if it is not known to manage. This was verified by Annie Lu, a 32 -year -old girl who served in her “ideal” work, product marketing manager of the Atlassian company, based in Bellevue, Washington.
They hired her at the end of 2022 and then thought he had found just what she was looking for to develop professionally, she explained in the middle . However, the initial enthusiasm was gradually declining as the company followed the tendency of the great tectonological ones.
After structural reorganizations, personnel reductions and cost cuts while the priorities of the company were oriented towards large -scale changes, Lu noticed that he no longer received creative projects that were adjusted to his specialty. “I tried to endure, but in 2025 I felt that my body remedied,” he said.
It was at that time when a 12 -week medical decline was taken and realized that his life needed a change and made the most difficult decision of his career: he resigned. “Life is too short, and no salary or put is worth more than my well -being,” he reflected in the article.
During his illness he focused on his physical health: he slept more, carried a balanced diet, exercised and enjoyed simple activities such as writing. Against, the decision to leave its job in Atlassian meant renouncing a six -digit salary, options on actions, generous benefits and a flexible schedule. But she no longer found the motivation to deal with stress. “I felt that I was renouncing something good to win something even better,” he said.
“I don’t know what the future holds, but I am enjoying this stage and the freedom that gives me,” he concluded.
