How to Achieve Your Goals While Avoiding Burnout by Tanya Catron | Oct 5, 2021 | Business, Entrepreneur, Tanya Catron
Burnout is one of the most common but least resolved problems that occur daily in the workplace. However, when one worker becomes too tired or stressed out to continue working, the reduced performance has negative effects on the rest of the company or organization. There are ways to continue accomplishing goals while avoiding burnout. Take Breaks Working for long hours nonstop is counterproductive to anyone’s goals. The harder a person works, the more tired and stressed out they become. Any machine, whether it’s a car engine or an air conditioner, overheats when it works too hard. Taking frequent breaks is necessary to allow the body to recover from overexertion. Pursue Other Work Tasks

How to Achieve Your Goals While Avoiding Burnout | Tanya Catron | Professional Overview
While working on one project, it’s not a bad idea to work on several others and switch between doing different tasks. Work becomes more tedious and less enjoyable when the same tasks are being done over and over again. Pursue Hobbies It’s always good to have fun, interesting hobbies in addition to serious work duties. Hobbies provide long moments of stress-free relaxation while allowing someone to accomplish important goals, such as fixing up a car or remodeling a room. Burnout is more likely to occur when someone focuses on doing mundane work that requires long periods of concentration and great detail of accuracy. Learning how to enjoy one’s work is necessary to avoid this problem. Work Step by Step Every goal has individual steps that are needed for its completion. Every goal must include a step-by-step plan that guides a person’s actions from start to finish. It’s important to finish each step one at a time, take a break and return to the next one to avoid overworking. An example is a goal to study for a hard exam in one day’s time. A person becomes more frustrated and stressed when they don’t have an exact plan on which materials to study and for how long. Instead, it’s more effective to divide every study plan into individual steps. Every worker experiences the same problem of dreading to go to work in the morning. Some people see their work as a chore that must be done at any cost. Improving one’s attitude toward work and changing a dull routine are the most important ways to avoid burnout.
