Despite my unique lifestyle – I recognize most people don’t travel full time – a lot of the lessons I’ve learned about burning out (and more importantly, how to prevent it) are applicable to everyday life. Organization – or lack thereof – was one of my biggest downfalls when it came to burnout. I learned from this experience that in order to prevent burnout, it’s important to create a system to streamline thinking. I learned that realistically, no single person can be everything to everybody. Part of preventing burnout is making sure we are selective about the opportunities we want to take on, and focus on a select few rather than spreading ourselves too thin.
