I’m halfway through a book on burnout and I think the crux of it is …
Choosing to complete tasks to the detriment of your health.
At least that’s what work related burnout looks like to me.
If that is the case then an overly simplistic solution is …
To place more importance on your health than any task your employer might have.
So to follow that logic even if the company is collapsing and you’re the only one who can save it but you’re feeling mentally exhausted, then you go home and recuperate!
By all means schedule it for first thing tomorrow morning but a good night’s sleep is deserved first.
100% easier said than done but I hope that observation helps anyone in need!
