Sometimes the best answer may be to find a job that is essentially without deadlines( nearly impossible), or one where you can work on your own schedule as a freelance worker. A growing number of people are temps on a full time basis. Some temporary agencies even have health care now. The advantage is that your jobs are varied and if you don’t  fit into the corporate structure, you can move on.

Some people have decided that working to own too many things is occupying too much of their lives. Everything you own requires time for purchasing or maintaining. Maybe you have allowed your stuff own you instead of you owning your stuff. If that’s the case, then downsizing might be the solution for you.
