I'm gonna use it now. Question is, how do you find (and keep) a job that navigates the extremely narrow path between burnout and boreout?

Why do you think it's narrow?
(Question asked by somebody that got burnedout by trying to professionalise side projects just after getting boredout by my job. I see a huge distance between those.)
This is also known as "boreout".
(However, I can't find evidence that "boreout" is a well-known word outside Germany. So maybe it's just one of our many German inventions of pseudo-english words.)
