Are You Cooked and Burned?

Are You Cooked and Burned?

Nope, today's thread is NOT about culinary arts.  But instead, we'd like to peek into our lives and ask ourselves if we are Cooked and Burned as we speak now?  Frankly in life, we do NOT expect to be that Cooked and Burned so soon in life because even our normal trajectories normally shapes up in a gradual, managed approach.  But if you got Cooked and Burned so soon in life, we got to figure out why this early, you really got Cooked and Burned because that's alarming  

So, what does being Cooked and Burned really mean?  Frankly, if you're in a workplace, that could imply that you're feeling BURNT OUT.  It's like your energy is spent, your drive is drained.  That's when you feel zapped.  But the bigger question stomping right in our face is as to what and why it took that fast for you get drained, spent and zapped?  Is/Was it your lifestyle?  Your discipline in life? Or how purposeful your life was?

If there's a word we need to attack now, it is 'BURNOUT' because whether you're still in the academe or now in the workplace, you might get caught with 'BURNOUT'  much sooner.  Why?  Could it be discontentment either with your academic nentors in school?  Or your bosses at the workplace?  Or it could be a rough-and-tumble relationship that has been rocking wildly till you got thrown off?

Either way, you got to arrest that 'DOWNHILL' trend in your life.  You just CAN'T leave it at that because we all know what and where will you end up.  If you're embroiled in a relationship that has been draining and taxing you 24x7, figure things out because you might have reached the tail-end of that saga.

At the very least, cry and scream for HELP.  Fine for you NOT to look for HELP if you DON'T need it.  But if there you are, limping down the rough roads, throw away that pride, dump away your ego and just go to your HELPLINE because for you to end up this early as Cooked and Burned is akin to the curtain call where you have reached your non-extendible DEAD END, whew✅✅✅
