Working life becomes more intense, which leads to a higher disengagement of employees with their job. What does the job you are engaged with lead to? Burnout. This state of deep frustration from long-term stress is very dangerous for a person’s health, so we collected some tips on how to avoid burnout for yourself (and your employees).
Pay attention to your mind
We are used to explaining our “can’ts” or “don’t want tos” as laziness, or just a first reaction to a new task. But why do we accept that doing something you don’t want to is how it supposed to be? This is where we lose connection with our job responsibilities and become gloomy. Listen to what your mind says, and make decisions with regard to that.
Set yourself to be positive
The thing that many psychologists keep repeating actually works, is the way we position the situation in our minds or words. When we produce negative thoughts or say something negative about ourselves or our job, the brain releases stress chemicals. In fact, you’re only damaging yourself more. Change the way you look at the situation: yes, I take longer to complete the task, but I am dedicated and doing my best.
Give yourself a rest
Schedule your breaks. Resting and recharging is very important to a healthy life, and it will make you more productive.
Try to focus on the main things — eat healthy, do sports, read, drink a lot of water, spend time with your family, do time management in the way so that your life is full. If your project is not a total success, at least you have your health and your family. — Daria Dubinina, Crassula
