Notes from Chris

Episode 1159
Here’s something a lot of our listeners have in common: burnout, fatigue, a lack of energy or motivation at work. All of those things come at a cost… ultimately a cost to your soul… but if you don’t want to get so personal, just on a practical level, those things are draining energy that could be put to all sorts of better uses.

So sometimes it turns into this chicken-or-egg thing: how can I get out of this situation…. Oh, I’m too tired to do anything about… but how can I get out, etc.

Today’s caller is dealing with this problem, and we’re going to talk it out a little.
"My job is draining, and not in a good way. I leave feeling exhausted and not ready for anything except binge-watching shows on my iPad. But then I feel bad, because I know it won’t ever change unless I make a change.

I had an idea but like I said, I feel too tired at the end of the day to really think about it. I keep telling myself I just need to suck it up and get to work, but then I put it off for another day. I can’t be the only one in this situation … what should people like me do? "
