Let’s Talk Burnout
Make sure you’re taking care of yourselves out there! This week was a lighter week for me article-wise as you’ll see later on in the newsletter. I’ve also seen many other people online wrestling with burnout this week. My best advice is to remember what’s truly expected of you.
We often try to go above and beyond in our jobs, or personal endeavors, and we end up making that higher standard our baseline. It’s important to remember what’s truly expected of you and officially asked of you. It’s great to push yourself to higher levels of success but don’t let that success cost you your well-being.
Here are 5 things to do instead of burning yourself out:
Catch up on your favorite shows or movies
Catch up on a good book
Get out and do something in nature
Accomplish a small goal such as folding your laundry
Visit family and friends
Drink your water. Eat your vegetables. Have fun. Enjoy life.

Ultimately, many of the features on Apple are available on Android, just ever so slightly different.
