Fatigue from work can be distinguished from emotional burnout due to it by evaluating your condition after rest. As Ekaterina Borovets, a psychologist and professional orientologist, told Gazeta.Ru, the key indicator is the state after rest.
According to her, if a person has had a rest, and after a break, interest in work has returned to him, it means that he is faced with fatigue. But if, even after rest, a person still feels unwilling to perform work tasks, we can say that he has burnout.
The psychologist pointed out that it is possible to fight fatigue and burnout by clearly dividing work and free time. It is noteworthy that household chores do not help to distract. According to her, in this case, it is worth taking the time to “take care of yourself.” That is, at this time a person devotes himself completely to hobbies and activities that bring him pleasure and help to relax.
Among the causes of burnout, Borovets singled out a person’s lack of interest in the tasks that he performs, overwork, and insufficient pay. In addition, the most important factor is the atmosphere in the team.
