For anyone who reads this: This Ted Talk really spoke to me because I struggle with saying no to a lot of things. Like Melanie said, "we want to validate our talents," but we will end up burning out if we can't say no. In school, I have a lot of things I'm required to do, but I'm also a part of extra activities which require a lot of my time too. I did not realize that I am at the point of burning out because I just thought that I have to manage my time better so I can do everything I want. It will be hard to give some things up because I will feel kind of bad, but I know it's helping me.

Lovely talk, astute and engaging. I can’t help to note that, as a business professor, she didn’t mention modern capitalism and data collection. It’s not simply that the individual wants to do more, and that distracts us. There are many, many outside forces that are “pushing our buttons,” especially corporations collecting data, devices designed to keep us on them, work asking more of us. This is not just an individual weakness, it’s also living in a society that is constantly asking more of us to create more capital. So, she’s right, we need to be more aware of “capacity” (great concept), but that awareness also needs to be directed at the economic systems we are embedded in.

Caution: When interpreting the WHO's defintion: Burnout is an *occupational* hazard caused defined as a, "syndrome conceptualized as resulting from chronic workplace stress that has not been successfully managed.” It's not a medical condition so much as an organizational condition. Sick organizations affect their employees. Self-care is not the answer. Instead, fix the organization.

@DrEzinneErhirhie 2 года назад

Which is more possible to do? It's easier to change myself than change my organization,

@djw8888 2 года назад

@@DrEzinneErhirhie 100% agree! To my point: The wellness/assistance programs offered by some companies can seem like a slapped-on bandage that's easier to apply than making changes to the company with employees' wellbeing in mind. Also, the action makes it seem as if it's the employee that needs fixing. It's a nice-to-have benefit that fails address the root problem. The slick self-help mobile app offered by by my last company did not prevent me from leaving after working conditions and other benefits began to seriously erode. So I changed myself by changing my environment and am sleeping very well now. :) Peace.
