2 Set boundaries and priorities

The second step to prevent burnout is to set clear and realistic boundaries and priorities for your work and personal life. This could involve saying no to tasks or requests that are outside of your capacity, scope, or responsibility, delegating or outsourcing tasks that are not essential, communicating your expectations and needs to your team, supervisor, and clients, negotiating deadlines, workload, and resources that are feasible and fair, planning and organizing your tasks and projects according to your goals and values, as well as taking breaks and vacations to recharge and relax. Doing so can help you reduce stress, increase efficiency, and achieve a better work-life balance.

O ambiente corporativo nem sempre é o mais adequado para um tema t?o sensível. Saber se posicionar em situa??es de conflito, excesso de trabalho e aprender a reconhecer seus limites s?o extremamente necessários. Alem de saber dizer n?o nas atribui??es que n?o s?o pertinentes ao seu cargo e exemplificar situa??es auxiliam neste processo doloroso.
