[video available on spotify] since high school, i've been cycling between two phases: wow, this girl is productive, and wow, this girl can't get anything done. when i'm in a productive phase, working comes easily to me. and when i'm in an unproductive phase, it's the complete opposite. during these unproductive times, i take a step back and analyze what's happening. and what i'm trying to figure out is am i being lazy, or am i burnt out? so today, i want to talk about the difference between laziness and burnout because they are kind of hard to distinguish, but understanding where you’re at helps you get back on track.  Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Since high school, I've been cycling between two phases.

  • Phase number one.

  • Wow, this girl is productive.

  • Wow, this girl does not stop.

  • Wow, this girl is on fire.

  • Wow, she doesn't sleep.

  • And then cycle number two.

  • Wow, this girl cannot get out of bed.

  • She can't get anything done.

  • She has not gotten anything done in a week.

  • What's wrong with this girl?

  • Is she okay?

  • Since high school, I've been bouncing back and forth between those two phases nonstop.

  • I rarely find myself in between.

  • I'm either one or the other.

  • When I'm in a productive phase, I just feel like I have endless energy.

  • When I'm in a productive phase, working just comes easily to me.

  • I sit down, I start working on something, and I just immediately, like, click into a flow state, and things are just seamless.

  • When I'm in an unproductive state, it's the complete opposite.

  • I procrastinate beyond belief.
