Work to Burnout, Then De-load 10 to 20 Percent
Notice burnout signs, then scale back your workload a bit and restore a dropped habit.
Hamza says
Hamza pushed hard for two months straight. His eye keeps twitching and his eyes have been red for about two weeks now. He's going to reel work back by about 10 to 20%, kind of like de loading a weight in the gym after hitting a PR, then de loading about 20% before doing another set. He'll go to the barber once a week and go to the gym for two or three extra sessions, about four sessions a week. He almost laughs when he feels symptoms of burnout because he sees it as a really good sign.
Try this
If you notice burnout symptoms during a hard work push, cut your work hours by about 10 to 20 percent and add back one dropped activity.
