Burnout doesn’t begin with exhaustion.
Had to shut down yesterday, even though deadlines are looming. To the point I can feel a tower of bricks hunching over me! But I needed a rest.
My husband says, and he’s right, that I’ve tried to take on too much too soon after surgery. So, I’m going to build in some protect myself days.
I’ve been there. Sometimes the bravest thing is to stop for a moment. You’re doing the hard work and take the rest you need.
