#198: Dealing With Burnout, Mental Exhaustion, And Low Creative Juices


Listen Later

If you're doing anything worth a damn, you will eventually hit a point of burnout. There's literally no way to avoid this happening from time to time.

The question is "how do you handle it"?

Some of us just put our heads down and keep working, trying to pretend we're fine.

Others completely withdraw to "recover", but they lose all momentum.

This episode explores the wide range of "gray" areas...

This is the area beyond simple black and white thinking.

It's this non-binary thinking that can help us navigate the most difficult roadblocks in our creative lives.

If you're going through burnout, or you feel like you just don't have anything left to give creatively, this episode is for you.

In this episode you’ll discover:

  • How to handle burnout
  • Why you might be facing burnout
  • Wearing all the hats as a business owner
  • The damage of over-saturating yourself in one aspect of life
  • Pacing yourself for success
  • How your well being is a sum of your life, not just one part
  • Why the four bottlenecks discussed in episode 188 are important to understand
  • Avoiding water in your gas tank
