A meaningful thought

Exhaustion often sends warnings early: sleep no longer restores you, small problems create disproportionate irritation, and work that once mattered begins to feel empty. Still, we continue, believing we can endure a little longer. Burnout rarely begins with one difficult day. It accumulates over weeks in which recovery is repeatedly postponed. Do not wait until continuing becomes impossible. Reduce the load, ask for help, and restore sleep and boundaries.
