Why a holiday doesn't fix burnout | Sacrifice

The holiday helped your burnout for a week, and then the heaviness came back.

"Burnout isn't about working too hard. It's about sacrificing too much for too little meaning."

From my book Sacrifice: The Pattern Beneath All Patterns.

A new parent who's up through the night gets exhausted but still has some life in them, because they're giving up sleep for something that matters to them. Burnout shows up when you're giving up that much for something that doesn't.

Most people have a pattern like this running and don't know it's there. If you want to find yours, do the Atlas. It names the pattern running your life in a single sitting. It's free at codexofthearchitect.com

Michael Lauria is a qualified therapist, author and philosophical mythologist, and the host of The Architect Speaks.

The Atlas names the pattern running your life in a single sitting. It is built from twenty years in the chair and the thirty-three books of Michael Lauria, a qualified therapist, author and philosophical mythologist. It takes about forty-five minutes, costs nothing, and ends in a written Record of that pattern, drawn from your own words. It is not therapy and not for crisis.
