The gun fires and you’re off to the races. Landing gently as a feather, hopping over the first hurdle seemed easy with almost no time to think about it, you’re already approaching the second obstacle.. It seems never-ending, but you know you’re just getting started. You tell yourself  to not quit, to keep giving it your all and then some. You can feel the weight of your desires on your shoulders: to be the best. Everything you have trained for has led to this moment. By the time you reach the end, you bring your head down in shame. Even as you jumped that first hurdle, you could feel a looming sense of hopelessness. It was a loss from the very beginning and even though you gave it your all, it still wasn’t enough. This is burnout, and it is an issue that all professionals encounter. In this episode, we talk about our experiences with burnout in the IT field, how we recognize it, and what we do to combat it.
