I saw this discussion somewhere else and thought it might be good to get your guys' thoughts. -What do you wish you would have done when you noticed the first signs of burnout?

I wish I had started setting some reasonable boundaries earlier. When I look back, I realize I was letting myself get too sucked into overwork, and I should have been more resistant to it. Of course, what often happens is that things happen gradually and it's like the cliche of the frog in the slowly heating pot of water. You realize too late that you're cooked.

I wish I had started making the changes before it got so bad. Burnout happens slowly, but by the time I realized it, I had to do a lot more work.

Setting boundaries and not letting myself go

I agree with setting boundaries. That has always been a struggle for me.
