How to Deal With Burnout - - 1.EVALUATE YOUR PRIORITIES


What is most important to you?  Many people would likely put family relationships and good health near the top of their list.  These are things that are likely to suffer if you are burned out.

By clarifying your priorities, you prepare yourself to make difficult decisions and accept trade-offs.  For example,  you may see that your work is leading to burnout.  Yet, you may reason, 'I cannot change jobs or work less; I need the income!'  True, everyone needs income, but how much and at what cost to the things you value most?

Beware of pressure to adopt priorities of others around you as your own. Your employer's priorities and yours are likely different.  Others may choose to put work first in their life, but this does not mean that you must do the same.
