If you realize that you are burned out with your career, this doesn't make you bad or alone. Most folks have experienced career burnout at least once in their work lives.\nHowever, it is not a fun or freeing feeling. Luckily, you can avoid or overcome career burnout. The following are suggestions to help you stay away from the big, bad, burnout!\n\nForm meaningful relationships with clear boundaries with your associates.\n\n    Get to know and appreciate the people with whom you interact. Also, set and maintain clear boundaries for expected behaviors and communications with your associates. The closer you are to the people with whom you interact with daily, the more enjoyable your work life will be, and the more you will look forward to future daily interactions with these same people.\n\n Be creative.\n\n    Is there a new, creative way to add a twist to what you do? Constantly look for ways to implement creativity to your daily responsibilities and tasks. This creativity will help you stay engaged in your business or career.\n\nChange your environment regularly.\n\n    Rearrange and clean your work environment. Change your daily routines. Change whatever you can afford to change. This regular change will keep your energy renewed and invigorated.\n\nTake regular vacations.\n\n    Give yourself well needed time away from your work. Regular vacations serve to revitalize your energy and your attitude. Pulling away from your work from time to time also helps you to gain a well-rounded positive perspective towards your business or work.\n\nGet a different job or open a different business.\n\n    If you've tried everything you can imagine to renew your passion for your work, but continue to experience career burnout, it may be that your soul is calling you to new career or business opportunities. In this case, do your homework, and attain a different job, career, or business that suits your needs and your personality.\n\n    As you go through your career travels and experiences, just remember that no job or career is 100% perfect. There are challenges in every situation. However, it is possible to avoid or overcome business or career burnout.

BETTER TO BURN OUT THAN TO FADE AWAY!!

The fact that this is important to you, that's how you break it. Try a cup of coffee to up your alertness. Or, repeat in mantra style "Just do it" I know it's a total rip-off from Nike, but matras work. When I get all raged out in the car, I repeat "Relax" over and over, even thinking of the way it looks written. It works!

"In order to burn out, one needs to actually have been on fire at one time"\n\nMany creative people, myself included, have very strong emotions, and they aren't always "nice" Rage, anger, grief, despair- to joy, ectasy, and desire! Most people are content with the status-quo, and say, "don't rock the boat". Somtimes, though, boats need to be rocked.\n\nIntense feelings often precipitate a spiritual awakening. A person has only 2 choices- be overwhelmed by them, or learn to harness them. Those that succeed in harnessing them can change the world. It takes work, though. \n\nRemember, anger is the spirit's way of letting you know someone is stepping on your emotional toes. You need to learn to look past the anger to describe, in your own words, what is really making you angry. (I am still learning that path, believe me!)\n\nThings that helped me learn to cope in more effective ways: karate, writing, modern poetry recitals, art, mountain climbing, research, and service to humanity. Also, learning to stand up for myself in an assertive manner, telling off people who really needed to be told off, learning diplomacy, and increasing my vocabulary (calling someone a detestable sycophant is so much more rewarding than saying they are kissing the boss's ass!) Also learning to be genuine. Remember your intensity will make you scary to some, but will often act like a magnet for all the right people when you learn to channel it.\n\n          Good luck. Oh yeah, driven, creative people make better lovers too. Pass it on!

Please, just relax. Take a few days off, spend it with people who mean something to you...\nIt should help.

Relax, I have OPC and learnt that you just can not do everything at once no matter how good you are at multi tasking, do the urgent things first, one at a time until completed or as far as you can take them, then move on to the next on the list, take time for yourself no matter what, other wise you burn out and you cant do anything

deal with it one at a time, if you need a break, take it, but like 15 mins, not whole night, and then study again. Sometimes do some physical work like housework, clean up the floor or kitchen will help you relax too. (my method, not suitable for everyone) :p I don't like to listen music, because the songs I listen to will be in my head all the times that distract me so much. Deep breath, relax, exercise a bit, then 10 days later you will be feeling refresh again! Good luck!

Just never compare yourself with other people, or compare your works with other people's works. I mean it's good if this kind of tension is in small scale but if you make it to be a big issue, you would definitely feel totally stressed out and feel like quitting before long :S\n\nAlways plan out what you're going to do so you won't skip the breakfast, lunch whatever\n\nI think you better check out this website too because there's a lot of tips and advices for you. There's a lot of topics, so you might wanna try the self improvement section\nhttp://www.articlecity.com/\nhttp://www.howtolivefree.com/articles/include.php?article=/articles/marketing/article_2872.shtm\ni haven't use it often so I'm not sure which section will help you the most\n\nGood luck!\n\nI hope this help. :)

Just try to de-stress and be sure you are getting enough sleep.  It sounds like you're irritable from being tired or frazzled.

breakdown what your working on into smaller time frames.  Go at stuff in 20-30 minute spurts. Then break, clear your mind, and do it again.  That's what has helped me out

Sort out the problem. Think of a creative alternative to come out of the problem. Take time to relax, play and then get to study. Believe in yourself. You can come out of the problem.

It's hard to fight stress while you are in the stressful situation. At home I read, clean and do artwork. Try hiding in teh Br for a few minutes or just plain tuning out.
