You’re feeling burnt out from community organizing. How can you re-energize yourself?

Recognizing the signs and symptoms of burnout is important to your health. Maybe it is time to reflect on the root cause of your stress. When we do this it will help us take action. I have found my passion contributes! If I like doing what I do! If I focus on what I love it is not work. The benefits get me out of bed. My why drives me to keep doing it. The signs of feeling drained are a good indicator and loss of interest could be telling you to move on! Evaluate the signs. Ask yourself serious questions. When physical health is involved take a close look. Your health is your wealth so take care of yourself.

Spreading yourself too thin will cause your health issues down the road. Action is required and boundaries have to be set. I your health fails it will cost you downtime. Establishing a few boundaries, like prioritizing workloads. Maybe minimalizing distractions or organizing and sharing tasks will help you get more down and that will lead to feeling satisfied. Protect your energy. Incorporate some daily habits. Like adding a nootropic drink that fuels your brain rather than high carbs that drain your energy. Be sure to take regular breaks as well.

Reconnecting with your purpose is understanding your Why. Each day rise and reflect. Maybe you need a visual! Or incorporate self-talk or high-five yourself in the mirror. Find something that reminds you of your purpose. Surround yourself with others. This allows you to edify your purpose. Renewing a sense of motivation. I find it helps me to have a vision board with reasonable goals. Reconnecting is a mindset that elevates your purpose for growth.

Reconnecting with purpose requires a reconnection with one's inner-vision and what originally motivated us. In order to get back to the basics, it is helpful to gain a mindful focus on how the work that we choose feeds our soul. If it doesn't create joy and happiness in our lives then, perhaps, it's time to tweak things, or choose a different path. Always be mindful of what feeds the soul??

Taking care of yourself is the key. Without health, all else falls short. I activate my body! I give it the balance it needs to serve me. A few years ago, my health failed! but at any age, you can change your story. I knew eating a healthy diet was not enough. I had to go deeper and activate my inner protection. I was so busy eating right need support. I activated my cells to fight against daily damage. It's better to have 1,000,000 antioxidants working for me. protection activated is nurturing wellness. It was a simple plan of action that helped me fight against poor nutrition. As a result, I got better sleep and less anxiety. My well-being became the balance I needed for better performance. You are worth the investment. Text if in need!

Burnout is sadly too common in our corporate culture as so many of us forget our health when trying to advance. While it is important to achieve professional fulfillment we must consider a work-life balance, rest, and rejuvenation, including fun activities like games and sports. Your worth is not defined by your accomplishments.

Burnout happens quickly if not dealt with. My advice is your passion should be your work. Work-life needs to be in harmony. Define your passion for something you love doing and life will be more fulfilling and less stressful.
