WHAT BURNOUT REALLY IS
Burnout is often misunderstood.
It’s not simply tiredness, lack of motivation, or poor time management.
And it’s not something that can be resolved through mindset shifts or productivity strategies.
Burnout is better understood as a state of chronic stress where the body has not been able to complete its stress response cycles.
This means that even when external pressure reduces, the internal experience of urgency, tension, or exhaustion often remains
Burnout is not a failure of discipline.
It is a physiological and emotional process that has been interrupted over time.
