But what happens along the way when you're overloaded, you have no energy, you're working harder and longer hours to try and get ahead and the only thing that's happening is frustration, exhaustion and resentment. It's called burnout and it's a rising problem in businesses today.  Burnout can happen when you're overloaded, you work in a toxic environment or your work life balance is out of balance and if you don't recognize the signs of it and work to overcome burnout it can result in a downward spiral.
