“Number one, you’re anxious about your work. Do you feel like stress is preventing you from doing well at work? Feeling anxious before a big test or a major presentation is normal, but if you feel the pervasive sense of anxiety daily, a constant sense of dread can manifest in more serious ways and lead you towards burning out more quickly. Anxiety can exhibit symptoms like chest tightness, nausea or even meltdowns compromising your ability to function at work. If you feel that you're anxiety persists long after work hours, it may be time to re-evaluate how you feel about your job and find things that you can control to provide a sense of stability.

Number two, you're experiencing insomnia. What thoughts fill your head as you fall asleep? Is it with excitement or dread? Just like colored animal on the wild can't sleep when predators are around, you may find it hard to sleep when you dread what's coming the following morning. According to a BMJ open study conducted by Arnaud Metlaine and a team of French psychologists, insomnia has a very strong association with burnout. This could be one reason why people who feel burnt out can seem tired and weary. Aerobic exercise can help improve these sleeping habits and help you clock more quality hours of sleep.”
