In one of the largest studies of burnout, Gallup found that 60% of people are emotionally detached at work and 19% are miserable.
Miserable?
The study further found that employees in the United States and Canada are the most worried and stressed-out workers in the world.
We think that happiness will eventually come after a jammed resume, a bunch of recognition, and a high salary. The problem is, we never arrive. We just teach ourselves to crave more. The cycle never ends; it only gets faster and faster.
There are millions of overachievers – just like you and me – struggling with these issues, wondering if there’s a better way.
Ready to get off the success wheel? You have two options:
- Continue to work yourself to death to attain endless professional achievements.
- Slow down, rethink your approach, and consider looking elsewhere for happiness and satisfaction.
You choose.
