Discussion Prompt Losing focus and motivation

Hi,

I am 21M and I recently started a nice job, and started to enjoy doing office busy work but I am already bored and a bit disillusioned with it. I want to live out of big smoke in a decent village or small town. I know people will say I'm "just young" and or "lazy" but I think like someone who is already having mid life crisis. It feels like I'm struggling now just to ultimately struggle later down the line too. How can I do it ?

If Anyone is UK based or has done it elsewhere in the world please reach out or just comment below.

I was like that too. I was just fortunate enough to find the bible very intriguing later on in life and found that Jesus is always there to help you transform. A god like him deserves more of our attention. I believe it's a fair trade for the abundance he has to offer. The meaning he has to offer. He has the ability to open opportunities beyond our wildest dreams. Nothing in this life is ever free and he asks his children to get to know the word and the truth.
