Focus

Problem

“I burn out”

Working in long unbroken stretches, or only ever doing the unpleasant parts, drains energy faster than it returns. Deliberate breaks, sustainable rhythms and building some enjoyment into the work help you keep going for weeks, not just one afternoon. If exhaustion is persistent, it's worth talking to a doctor — productivity techniques are not a treatment for burnout.
