#238 - Avoiding Burnout: Prioritizing Your Work and Life

When we think of work, it often carries a negative connotation. However, if we want to achieve our goals, consistent effort is necessary. Work doesn't have to be negative; it's simply the effort required to move forward. To appreciate the results achieved, we must invest a certain amount of effort. Work should also bring joy and fulfillment while fulfilling our goals. Even if we have setbacks, we can still find our work fun because we know the effort is worth it. If we're beginning to feel overwhelmed by the work we love, burnout can happen. Sometimes we need to make changes to avoid it. We must place our focus on finishing some things and let go of other things, whether it's for the short-term or for good. It's important to evaluate what the next logical step is and prioritize accordingly. I came to the realization that I was on the road to burnout. I needed to evaluate where to focus my efforts and prioritize accordingly. In this episode, I share two major things I will pause in the short-term to make room for complete focus on what I have determined to be the most important next logical step: finishing a select few major projects. For the next few months, Scrivener Solutions will not be accepting new "done-for-you" clients. Instead, we will be focusing on our current clients. Most of them have major transition projects that require additional attention. We are proud to be a part of their growth and changes in their business. We are also focusing on our launch an easy-to-use social media scheduling platform called Scrivener Social. This program is being built for the busy DIY entrepreneur and is expected to officially release by the first of the year. To make room for this launch, the Live Full Work Fun podcast will be paused. It will return in the fall or winter in conjunction with the official launch of Scrivener Social. In the meantime, let's stay connected. Hop into the Live Full Work Fun Facebook group and drop a note. Be sure to follow and connect with me and the Scrivener Solutions team on your favorite social platform.
