Pandemic-induced burnout...

Recovery time is key to innovation and output... in order for knowledge workers to do their best work, they need space and unstructured time... We have to build a system of work that reflects how our brains actually function and what our creativity needs. That begins with incorporating recovery into the work process. You can’t be innovative if you’re not creative, and you can’t be creative if you’re stressed, exhausted, distracted, or sleep deprived... it’s crucial to recover hard when you play hard... working nonstop simply doesn’t work... It’s important to use some of this time to process our emotions and reflect on the discomfort...

— Rahman Harfoush (Digital anthropologist)

I’m so happy to hear that. Makes me feel better about tuning out and losing focus, especially now! Just sayin’ ;) Hugs. XO
