Sudden loss of interest
Nobody agrees on the exact day everything got quiet.
And that right there?
That’s the line that hooked me.
Because he’s right.
There wasn’t a collapse.
There wasn’t a siren.
There wasn’t some dramatic cinematic moment where the sky split open and we all screamed.
Life kept moving.
Emails came back.
Traffic came back.
Meetings came back.
Expectations came back.
But meaning didn’t.
And if you read Chapter 1 and didn’t feel seen, I don’t know what world you’re living in.
Because something DID go quiet.
Not depression.
Not laziness.
Not failure.
Muted.
That’s the word.
Muted.
You wake up.
You function.
You smile.
You answer texts.
You pay bills.
But inside?
No pull.
No hunger.
No spark saying, “Go. Chase that. Build that. Dream bigger.”
And the scariest part?
Nothing looks wrong.
You have food.
You have shelter.
You have opportunity.
So why don’t you care the way you used to?
That question.
That quiet, almost embarrassing question.
“Why don’t I care the way I used to?”
Chapter 1 doesn’t diagnose you.
It doesn’t shame you.
It doesn’t tell you to hustle harder.
It names what happened.
And that’s dangerous.
Because once you name it, you can’t pretend it’s just you.
This wasn’t a personal failure.
It was a collective adaptation.
When trust erodes, interest retreats.
When instability becomes background noise, desire rationed itself.
Caring became expensive.
And we adjusted.
We lowered expectations.
We shortened conversations.
We stopped initiating.
Not because we became cold.
But because expansion felt risky.
And you know what hit me hardest?
“Interest requires trust.”
That line.
Because that’s it.
Interest is investment.
Investment requires belief.
Belief requires stability.
And stability cracked.
So of course the spark dimmed.
Of course joy felt thinner.
Of course motivation stopped initiating.
This chapter isn’t dramatic.
It’s terrifyingly calm.
And that’s why it’s powerful.
Because it describes something most of us felt… but couldn’t articulate.
It wasn’t the end of the world.
It was the day everything got quiet inside of it.
And if you felt that quiet?
You’re not broken.
You’re not lazy.
You adapted.
If you want to read Chapter 1 for yourself, the book is called:
Sudden Loss of Interest: The Path to Rising with Renewed Strength.
It’s available on Amazon: https://a.co/d/03zI9Ifo
And if you’ve felt that quiet too…
start there.
