Ep 1 Part 1: How to Overcome Burnout

<p>Let me guess, you think you’re just stressed out and you’re not even close to burning yourself out? If this is you, this episode is made just for you. </p> <p>In today’s episode we cover the first two phases of burnout. </p> <p>Phase 1 = Ambition </p> <ul><li style="font-weight:400;">During the Ambition Phase you’re focused on your future and meeting your goals. Therefore, your ambition propels you to take action that allows you to meet your goals.</li> <li style="font-weight:400;">You're taking on more responsibility, but not taking any responsibility or tasks away. </li> </ul> <p>This action propels you right into the next phase of burnout. </p> <p>Phase 2 = “If Only” </p> <ul><li style="font-weight:400;">You're focused on completing your to-do list. The only catch is that your to-do list keeps growing and no matter what you just can't seem to catch up. </li> <li style="font-weight:400;">Your main thoughts are  "If only I could get this done I will be satisfied,” and “If only I can get this done, I’ll be one step closer to achieving my goals.” </li> </ul> <p>This hamster wheel of thoughts propels you right into frustration because there is never enough time in the day to get “all the things done” that you “should” be getting done. </p> <p> </p> <p>The frustration then walks you right into the third phase of burnout. </p> <p> </p> <p>Additionally, I walk you through how you’re creating habits by following the same process over and over again. </p> <p> </p> <p>The first step in the process to managing your stress effectively and overcoming burnout is to have the courage to become self aware. </p> <p> </p> <p>You can’t solve a problem if you don’t even realize that you have a problem in the first place. </p> <p> </p> <p>STEP 1 = SELF AWARENESS</p> <ul><li style="font-weight:400;">Determine where you are at in the burnout process. </li> </ul> <p> </p> <p>I’ll make it easy on you, take this quiz to identify where you’re at in the process:</p> <ul><li><a href='https://burnout2blessed.involve
