I am toiling 10-14 hour days and a couple of hours on the weekends. The company has refused to get me more help, and at this point it requires this much of me to keep everything afloat. My subordinates have families and lives, and I must keep them from the same sacrifices as me. Originally, I was doing it to prove my worth and earn a promotion. That was denied. Now I am working this hard purely out of spite, while actively searching for another job elsewhere.
I say all this to preface that it is now time for more discipline than ever. I have restarted the gym work today, lifting with SL 5x5 and doing some meal prep to support my cut. I plan on proposing to my gf before the end of the year, and I need to be in the best physical, mental, and financial state I can in that time.
