One Step Away from Burnout. A Balanced Action Plan to Break Free from the Vicious Circle of Chronic Fatigue

Bert te Wildt and Timo Schile are psychotherapists who have been studying work fixation for a long time. Having identified the causes and consequences of such behavior, they introduce the concept of the 'Burnout' syndrome, in which chronic fatigue, lack of energy, excessive perfectionism, tension, and paralysis of action inevitably lead to burnout and affect physical well-being. If you suddenly notice that your once favorite hobby no longer brings you joy, and you are spending an indecent amount of time on work tasks, trying to prove to yourself and those around you that you are the best at what you do, you certainly need to study this syndrome. The authors will help you understand the reasons for its emergence and explain how to stop being a 'goal-oriented' person and finally start living.
