How To Make Life Manageable (And Not Burnout)
A common advice in self-help books is to figure out what matters to you, and to focus your time and attention to those things. But, what if it goes beyond what you can physically manage? What if you are still spread too thin amongst all your priorities?
There is an assumption that you must expend tremendous effort to do what matters to you. However, when you follow this assumption, your risk of burnout becomes higher the longer you overextend yourself. This in turn affects your ability to take care of the things that matter to you.
The author proposes that you reconsider this assumption. There are ways to look after what you value without burning yourself out. You do not have to needlessly suffer. There are ways to make things almost effortless. This is the subject of this book.
(I) Effortless State. Ask: “What would this look like if it was easier?” You have to make things fun and playful. You have to cultivate a sense of gratitude, and to let go of grudges. It’s important to be present and also to take breaks, to rest and to sleep well.
(II) Effortless Action. You have to clarify and to set your goals. You have to find the smallest doable action of those goals, and to set the minimum criteria for completion. You have to be okay with making mistakes when starting, and to keep steady and to follow your set range.
(III) Effortless Results. You have to build a knowledge base. To build expertise, you have to try new things. You have to learn how to teach, to delegate, and to communicate clearly. Automate what can be automated. Foster trust, hire trustworthy people. Look ahead, and set precautions for things that can be prevented.
