“Burnout is what happens when you try to avoid being human for too long.” – Michael Gungor
Welcome to Episode 89: 10 Tips For Dealing With Creative Burnout ...
The creative industry is a highly competitive one. And as an artistic soul, you put so much time and energy, and heart into your creations. (Whatever they may be.) And these even more pressure to get it done, and done right, when your livelihood depends on it – and clients too!
No creative individual wants this to happen to them, and yet, burnout happens to almost everyone at one point or another in their life.
So, what does it mean when you wake up one day and realize you don’t have the gumption to do this anymore? How does it make you feel knowing the projects you used to deem as fun and challenging, now feel utterly pointless and drab? How do you stop feeling mentally exhausted? Overwhelmed? Underwhelemed? Languished?
That being said, here's what we will be untangling in this episode ...
- Symptoms to watch out for
- Understanding the “why” behind your feelings
- Learning to release the shame behind the roadblock
- Hacking perfectionism
- Avoiding languish by re-evaluating your routine
… and oh so much more!
