I BURNED OUT ONCE


What is burnout?

Last year after graduation and the discussion of my thesis, I felt this kind of exhaustion for a long period of time, I slept days and nights I wasn’t able to do anything can’t go out stopped the gym even I wasn’t interested in movies I just wanted to rest as much as I could, it was really something huh?
Everything happened because of my researches, I had this problem about how to produce bioelectricity from bacteria and treating wast water at the same time, between running from bibliography to lab work and experimenting all day long for many times and some problems with my tutor believe me it wasn’t an easy task with the period of time I had planned. Is this really  a burnout ???
After some time I start having my strength back but still, my behavior didn’t change what’s wrong with me?

I found that burnout  is the loss of motivation and the energy to keep moving forward.
Also, it said that it is a state of emotional, mental, physical, exhaustion caused by excessive and prolonged stress in times when a person is unable to meet certain standards and demands.
Dr. Maslach put burnout in 3 types base on the environment that may cause it.
1.      Individual burnout or self-burnout it caused by negative self-talk and blaming ourselves for not being able to keep up with whatever we are going for.     
2.     Interpersonal burnout its cause is toxic relationships and very stressful situations related to people.
3.     Organizational burnout
Poor life organization
Extreme demands
Not fulfilling our life standards

Burnout and stress are pretty closely linked, but they’re not the same thing.
Stress puts a lot of pressure on the body. This can be manageable in the short-term, but if it's constant, it can be bad for both your physical health and emotional wellbeing. Eventually, too much stress on your body over a long period of time can cause you to burn out.

So to make it clear you can be stressed without being  burned out but you can't be burned out without being stressed.

HOW TO GET TO YOUR GOALS

For me to go there to your goals even if it an only the first step, you need to know what you want to do in your life you must know who you are what you can and what you can’t do to be there you need to study yourself first. Ask your self some questions in front of the mirror, Who are you? not to know your name but what this guy stands for and what does he   want from life what is it that he desires the most what is his passion. Are you sure you wanna do that?? Are you capable of doing that?? so what stopping you?  go do your thing dude. You can’t do that?   why? what are you missing?? Can’t you evolve to the person who can do that?? Of course you can, you just need to move and change something in yourself read a books watch videos on youtube ask google, to make that change ask a friend, somebody, anybody can help you out telling you something agree with you on something supports you a lot of stuff can happen when to go out your comfort zone....

I start wasting my time again

I start wasting my time again In everyone’s life, we may find out that there are some kind of wastes wherever you go it can be food or money maybe feeling and emotions or “TIME” knowing that some times put us under some stress but we don’t know how not to do that, wasting is happening based on our life routines and habits, For me when it comes to food I eat everything on my plate and I throw only expired food and don’t cook every day, about MONEY I don’t spend much I put everything I need on different lists and prioritize them according to my need at that time, I’m good at making lists, now FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS, I don’t like to be attached to people unless they are attached to me and have the same kind of feelings if they care I care if they don’t I don’t ( there always some people you would care for no matter what they do to you or where they go), it really doesn’t bother me to spend   most my time by myself, I like being alone for some time, but don’t get wrong I would be gl...

WHY AM I STRUGGLING WITH MY DAILY ROUTINE

I always had day in my life when I am my best I wake up early ready to go to work have my gym schedule clean the dishes, cook my food and my agenda is on time, and there is also me the one who’s never on time wake up at 11am I missed my lessons and late for work, sometimes I stop cooking and I eat whatever I find in the fridge, the room is a mess I’m a mess everything around me is a mess. And I think that I’m not the only one suffering from this, actually a lot of people have this kind of problems if not most of them, these might be a relief when you see that you are not the only one who has this kind of mess in your life, but the question is   does it help? Of course not, and I am talking from my experience when I was a kid    my high school university, writing my Master's degree thesis, last period of searching for a job. Bad choices in the past As I see how things went in the past I know now that I had other choices to make, for example, the summer when ...
