Say Goodbye to BURNOUT!
NOT sure if BURNOUT is still part of today, no thanks to our iGen and GenZ generations because they are living their live around the clock, literally speaking. NOT until one gets hit with BURNOUT. And that is a consequence we will all face, like it or NOT. BUT when can we Say Goodbye to BURNOUT? YES dude, you can say adieu to BURNOUT now because that is myth proven to be hurdled and at best, even avert and avoid if we consciously embrace the need to pre-empt BURNOUTπππ
Our human dilemma is that for the past century, people have talked a lot about anxiety, depression and burnout. More accurately, these issues that have been affecting the human population since the beginning of time have gained more light as people removed the stigma about mental health issues and started talking about itπππ
Admittedly, we've all [and that includes moi in the past] been struggling with this at one point OR another, whether it's obvious OR not, OR whether we want to admit it OR not. Even to ourselves. BUT there are little moments, here and there, WHERE we seem to be crippled with anxiety, fear, lack of stability OR simple mental exhaustion. BURNOUT can happen to anyone routinely exposed to high levels of stress [and that's NOT limited even in a toxic workplace because there are equally toxic household environments that become the sort of breeding ground for the various levels of stress. Problem is, it can cause symptoms of exhaustion, depression and isolation. Yes, BURNOUT is a state of mental and physical exhaustion that can zap the joy out of youπ¦π¦π¦
Unfortunately, highly frequent exposure to stressful situations [even like caring for an ill family member, working long hours, or witnessing upsetting news related to either family life, health or safety can all lead to that stressful condition. BURNOUT, however, ISN'T always easy to spot, that's the bigger challenge. With that in mind, we need to be aware if we are potentially leading towards BURNOUT and be aware of its most common symptoms, at the very leastπ₯π₯π₯
Before getting into proactiveness and subtle countermeasures to BURNOUT, let's be aware of these most obvious symptoms: exhaustion, isolation, irritability, frequent illness, amongst others. Our takeaway: BURNOUT is NOT akin to a 'big bang' thing. It will unravel in phases like DENIAL, WITHDRAWAL, BEHAVIORAL CHANGES, EMPTINESS and even DEPRESSION. BUT by being incisive and sharp with these tell-tale signs, we can SAY GOODBYE TO BURNOUT❗❗❗
