Burnout looks different for everyone
With today’s fast-paced, efficiency-driven culture, burnout has become a well-known phenomenon. But here's the thing: burnout is more than just feeling tired. It isn't a one-size-fits-all experience. It shows up differently for everyone.
Maybe you're feeling...
🫨 Overextended: Juggling too many tasks and feeling constantly overwhelmed.
🫥 Disengaged: Going through the motions but feeling mentally checked out.
🫤 Unproductive: Struggling to focus and get things done, even simple tasks.
😮💨 Exhausted: Drained of energy, both physically and mentally.
😟 Cynical: Feeling negative and disillusioned with your work or life in general.
Do any of these sound familiar? Take a moment to check in with yourself on whether you experience any of these symptoms.
Because burnout manifests in various ways, there's no single solution. However, the first and most important step to manage burnout is to recognise your personal burnout signals.
