The Slippery Slope between Boredom and Professional Burnout
3:23:13 2024-09-06 1461

If you feel like you're either too busy or not busy enough and can't find the balance at times, this post is for you.

I believe technology wires us to become increasingly less tolerant of boredom. To be honest, I dread board and more than depression. And that brings me to the next point: I'm obsessed with my job. Most people work to live. Sometimes I wonder if I live to work. I love the work I do so much. I love it so much that sometimes it's as if I can't slow down even when I know I should. If I'm not careful, I can tend to work compulsively to the point of burning out occasionally. Although I've learned the hard way that it's vital for my self-care that I don't regularly work past 5 p.m. or before 10 a.m., I don't see myself fully stopping. Why, you ask? I have made a conscious choice that if I had to choose, given that I'd prefer to avoid both, I'd regularly choose burnout over boredom. Making sense of this has been profound, illuminating, and challenging, unearthing an ongoing conflict between two extremes of my mental, physiological, and emotional states. For many professionals, I believe, feeling stuck between these two evils can ensnare me. Maybe it's the cost of being so infinitely fortunate to love what I do.
