When I was managing consulting projects, I told my teams that they should feel free to communicate with me if they had any issues or concerns. However, I also wanted their ideas about what they would do to solve the issue they are raising.

Situations can get "extreme," or small issues may arise when you are in the heat of the moment trying to accomplish your goals. That's normal.

But to change the pattern and prevent Burnout, you need to communicate with an action.

If you are working hard at something you believe is important, but others (e.g., your boss, clients, customers) do not align with it, you will burn yourself out faster.

Make sure you align with the beliefs of every stakeholder of your work.

Not everyone is a good listener. 

Most people have a habit of listening to find a way to relate your story to their lives and then tell you how it relates.

A small percentage of people will listen to you, show empathy, find ways to help you, cheer you on, and overall, keep the focus on you and your needs. 

Next time you have a conversation, find out who's really listening to you.

How burned out are you from work? Everyone experiences different levels. So, it would help if you treated your Burnout accordingly.

There are three layers to beat your Burnout.

- Work Smarter In The Work Environment.
- Prioritize Your Life With Your 10 Life Pillars.
- Find Your Purpose Through Your Core Values.

How are you dealing with your Burnout?

Think about your current situation. For example, what are you spending time on that is outside of your control?

- Are you trying to change someone's behavior/belief?
- Are you forcing someone to like you?
- Are you breaking someone's pattern abruptly?

Focus on making yourself better and what you feel you can control.

Whom you surround yourself with is a choice, just like everything else in your life.

Don't underestimate the strength you can gain from having the right people by your side who genuinely support you through good times and bad. You shouldn't make space for people who bring constant negativity.

There are five things you can change to overcome Burnout.

1) Behavior
2) Beliefs
3) Habits
4) Routine
5) Self

Notice that these five are all about you? You can only change what you can control and that starts with your inner work.

Are you aware of the difference between all five? If so, what do you need to change? COMMENT below!

As you grow with your company and take on more responsibilities, delegation becomes MANDATORY to be effective in your role.

Just don't confuse delegation as an excuse to get away from tasks while you don't work on anything important. Rather, use it to grow efficiently by working on the most important tasks while others help you.

Daily tip #2

Beat Burnout by working smarter series

When you have those tasks that seem never-ending, maybe even repetitive, possibly a multi-day effort (or any other long periodic timeframe), set an "acceptable-for-you" limit where you would feel accomplished when you reach it.

Then, determine your energy levels and decide if you can/want to do more or call it a day.

Example: Setting a limit to how much daily progress you want to make towards a 10-15 page final deliverable for your client.

Exhaustion and Negativity are not the only symptoms of Burnout. Lacking motivation is also a major symptom.

For those who are driven but may feel stuck in a repetitive situation or just feel like you are "going through the motions", find ways to motivate yourself!

If you want more tips on finding motivation through challenges, check out @burnoutcoachcarlo for my latest post.

Understanding what your team, clients, family, or friends expect from you is important to build and keep a healthy relationship.

It's important to find someone you can trust to share your thoughts and feel comfortable knowing someone has your back instead of you "bottling" your situation to yourself.

Recovery is harder when it's a lonely road.

Do you know how burned out you are exactly?

According to psychologists Herbert Freudenberger (who invented the term "Burnout") and Gail North, there are 12 stages.

Burnout has a wide range, from "I can't wait for the day to be over" to having a complete mental or physical collapse.

Make sure you pay attention to your symptoms and not lose track of who you are and where you need to be mentally, physically, and emotionally.

There are many common symptoms of Burnout. E.g., Changes in sleeping patterns, negativity, low energy, lack of motivation, not caring about work. The list can go on for a while.

But they all fall under the umbrella of three major symptoms:

1. Exhaustion
2. Cynicism
3. Professional Efficacy

Are you ignoring your symptoms? If not, which one do you have?

There are many reasons why people in the working world are not direct when speaking. They are one of the following:

* They pretend they are experts
* They are inexperienced
* They are full of themselves
* They don't know what they are looking for
* They love to talk

Even if these people have good intentions, be careful of them. Your time is valuable, and the best thing for you to do is to be direct back at them.

Focus on you. It's mentally draining having to think about what others think of you or if they even like you.

Focus on your growth, and the rest will follow.
