Is it normal to not want to work at all?

[mich]

I would say to have this type of feelings about working is not normal.  We are alive to work and contribute to this society and the world. 
For a person who doesnt want to work would be a lazy individual and would not be attractive to the opposite sex. 
Without working you cant make money to survive or raise a family.  We all have dream jobs like yours but reality has to sink in at some point.

If you are in a situation where if you don’t go to work, you have nothing to eat, then I'm sure that you will want to work and even, you'll cherish the job and love it. you can't afford to lose it.

Yes, but there is also a situation in which people who have not been strong may become more and more degenerate during particularly difficult times.

This only proves you one thing , You  are Crazy and needed a Specialist in life to go through .

Where on earth that even if you will be offered X4 still you'll resign ? you are one Moron if that is true but of course This is another Story just to Boost your Posting and have activities in this forum.

I feel exactly the same.

You don't feel the same because you are the same person.

Stop fooling people here ..

It's normal.
People are lazy.
Work requires time, energy, and brainpower. This is the opposite of human nature.

[KEN O]

normal.
Work is not always pleasant, but entertainment will be.
People always seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
Always tend to choose what makes you happy.
Obviously, this is not work.

So what are you persisting here ? that people should not work at all 

It is not Opposite of Human nature but that is opposite of human like you and OP

There is always appropriate work for us, we only need to love and live with it.

It isn't that I hate my current job, it's actually pretty easy and pays enough. I just don't want to go. I think even if I were offered my dream job paying quadruple what I make now, I still wouldn't want to do it. People tell me to find a job I love, but even if I loved it, I still wouldn't want to do it unless there's some way to get paid for watching TV - not writing reviews, not being in a focus group, just sitting quietly at my house watching TV and interacting with no one.

That scene in Office Space where Peter says if he had a million dollars he would do nothing? That's exactly how I feel. I just want to eat, drink and sit here in my chair watching TV or playing video games until I die.

the logic is how you can still relax in front of the television to snacking and drinking casually...
electricity must be paid for, food and drink must be bought and everything costs money, if you do not make money, where will you continue to be able to do this all. you have to work because everyone needs money.

[ethereumhunter]

If we had a million dollars, we would want to have more million dollars because of our nature of wanting more.

It is normal if you do not want to leave your job now, even if you hate that job.

If you want to do whatever you want right now, then you can do that, and you are free to do that thing. We can be lazy for some time, but we can not get something if we do not do something.

For me, I don’t want to go to work because I want to spend more time with my child and take him out to see the world when he has a vacation. But I have to go to work, because going to work can help me realize my needs. I need salary income, I need to establish the image of a hard-working mother for my children, and work to provide me with a different social environment. So, going to work is not so painful anymore. On the contrary, it will make me pay more attention to efficiency, let me complete the work in the shortest time, and then do what I want to do.

[Eva Arnold]

I think it's normal, because I don't want to go to work either. The work pressure at work is not as good as staying at home every day, but when you stay at home every day, you will miss the time at work again.

You have to realize that you are burning too hard. Redefine the boundaries of work, especially perfectionism.
Perfectionism is the most important source of stress. The most imperfect aspect of perfectionism is that perfectionists have set many tasks that cannot be accomplished at all, and will self-doubt when they fail to reach them. It is the source of many mental illnesses.
Adjusting your work schedule and reducing your perfectionism will greatly reduce your job burnout.

[londongamer]

Actually not, especially if you think you are uncomfortable and not a social person. Because just like I am like, I often want to be quiet, even at home. It seems like I have my own world, I don't know, but that's where I become more okay.

People sometimes start getting a feeling like this. It can stem from being so worn out even you do the job you like or from something different. I find it totally normal actually. Because people are not robots and they need to rest for enough time to gather energy and be focused again on their job. Besides, I like it being here too and if I were a millionaire or a billionaire, I would just do some bounty works that I find here and be interested in my job as a hobby. But I'm not saying this for not liking my job because I like doing it. I would just want to allocate much more time to different things.

[boyptc]

Then be a business/company owner so that you can do those things while being paid. But it's not easy at all because you need to do all the things from the beginning and you need to put a lot of effort into building it.

If you've got no problems with money and you're just chill at home without having any stress about what food you should bring into your table, that's what financial freedom means. You're not forced to work.

[silabai]

It is natural because everyone has their own thoughts

I think most of us are not fully happy with their job and would do something completely different if they had the chance and financial independence to do so. Unfortunately we all need money and can't follow our dreams, it is usually a trade off between a very well paid job, and a job that doesn't earn a lot but would be our dream. In the end it matters more what time we have outside of work and with whom we are going to spend it. If you don't hate your job, you earn a lot of money and it is easy to do, I would recommend just sticking to it.

I think you just want an early retirement, so set up your own pension fund, fill it with shares that will pay you dividends and allow you to live comfortably and go on to the retirement you deserve!

Hallo,

das ist ganz normal und geht vielen so. Auch ich war vor 2 Jahren in der Situation, dass ich mich einfach gar nicht mehr zum arbeiten aufraffen konnte.

Viele Gespräche haben geholfen, aber auch sollte man sich selber mal einen Tag komplett für sich nehmen. Um sich auch wieder bewusst zu machen, wieso man überhaupt arbeiten geht.

Habe dir auch mal eine Seite verlinkt, die dir bestimmt weiterhilft:

I think some kind of 'work' is always needed. Even if you're fully financially independent you need discipline not to slide into bad habits and lose what you have.

[KEN F]

Human nature is laziness.
And work means giving up laziness.
It is natural and reasonable not to work according to human nature.
