PRACTICAL PSYCHOLOGY

Have you lost your sense of direction in life and didn’t know what else to do? Do you always feel "lazy", unmotivated, and uninspired? Because we live in such a cutthroat and hypercompetitive society so obsessed with the pursuit of wealth and success, we're likely to suffer from chronic stress. When we constantly overworking ourselves, we're bound to experience some adverse effects on our mental and emotional well-being. But what if your laziness is about more than just emotional burnout? What if it’s already become something much more serious? Watch this to find out.

There’s actually a lot of overlap between laziness and burnout that can make it difficult to differentiate between the two. Burnout is defined as “a negative state of emotional, physical, and mental exhaustion caused by excessive stress and an inability to cope with it.” To educate ourselves and better understand the nature of burnout, especially when we ourselves are at risk, here are a few tell-tale signs that what you’re experiencing right now isn’t actually laziness, but burnout.

Do you wonder if you're still in love with him or her? Unfortunately, love is something that fades. And sometimes, it might be helpful to recognize the signs early than late. If you are no longer in love with someone, you have to let them know.
