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....

struggling with sleep

I always struggle with sleeping for a long period I like though don't get me wrong I like sleeping late watching movies animes series but when it comes to waking up I suffer my brain can't tolerate the short time of rest I'm taking 2h or 3 the most when I have work to do in the morning If I'm free for the day I also suffer from that headache for sleeping more than 10 hours. how I organize my time ?? easy work really hard like it's a punishment for those wasting all those hours on movies a very busy day from 8 am to 10 pm until I can't lift my hand hhhhhh no pain no gain hhhhhh. that's how I gain my sleep back (those days I sleep more than 8hours at night and it feels like heaven).
