I'm interested in finding ways to avoid burnout. I've found that at times I feel so overwhelmed by the amount of work that needs to be done that my mind just wants to close down completely. And yet the work we do is so interesting and usually rewarding. I find I use a lot of emotional energy as well as physical and mental energy. Any ideas? Either share them with all of us or e-mail me.
