I've experienced burnout at a couple of different points in my life, which I've learned was as much about what I wanted from my job as it was about what my job asked of me.
These are both great articles. I wish I had something more profound to say in response to your insight about burnout but honestly I’m taking it all in. Does “burnout sucks” count? Something here has to give and I feel too many of us are ending up on the wrong side of the equation. I really enjoyed the article about Nate too. I always liked him as a football player and his post football career is such a good reminder that people are more than “moments”, whether an actual moment, or something lasting the duration of an NFL career.
enjoyed the juxtaposition of the two articles. you and nate both have that drive to succeed but have very different paths to reach what appears to be your happy places.
also, wasn't nate the player who broke his arm in a car wreck after trying to save a pizza that fell off the passenger seat or something? a couple brain cells seem to think so
The personal price of getting worked over
