Re:I Quit the Tsunami of Burnout Few See by vonnik on Saturday January 11, 2025 @02:42PM (#42668411)
I burned out bad running a startup and shutting it down during Covid. I managed to recover since then.

There are lots of causal factors leading to burnout. It’s basically a long term energy imbalance along multiple dimensions.

One of those dimensions is attentional fatigue caused by our messy digital environment:

But there are other factors that feed into it: physical, emotional, social.

I highly recommend attention span by Gloria Mark, The Power of Engagement by Jim Loehr, and for those who want to change their life, Tiny Habits by BJ Fogg.
