Burnout is not a badge of honor. Overextending yourself in your work, your relationships, and your personal goals to the point of burnout is not noble. It is self-destruction. It is exhausting. Spreading yourself too thin waters down the overall quality of your life, which is why it’s so important to make time for rest.
