Burnout
Are you burned out, or in danger of burn out? Has your life gotten so busy that it takes every ounce of energy on a daily basis simply to keep from falling behind? And you're not doing a very good job of that?
If so, I understand-it's not a good feeling. Like the dilemma of having a tiger by the tail: let it go and it'll gobble you up; hold on and you're in for a wild ride. According to recent polls, the American workforce is burdened by a great deal of stress; 77 percent reported feeling occasional burnout, which, by the way doesn't discriminate by age, gender, or other common groupings.
The first thing I would recommend this week if you're feeling burnt out is that you honor that commandment about the Sabbath. Take a day where you spend time worshipping God and the rest of the day away from anything close to your daily grind. Take a walk. Go to a park or the beach. Stop receiving input and give your mind a rest.
