Understanding Burnout

Pitfalls of Being a High Achiever

Burnout happens when we’re under constant stress—whether it’s from ourselves or others—to the point where we become utterly exhausted physically, mentally, and emotionally. It’s often linked to stressful work environments or overwhelming responsibilities, but it’s not limited to these. Anyone facing prolonged, high levels of stress and pressure can experience burnout.

In high-pressure settings, feeling like you have little control, not having enough time for family and friends, and juggling too many responsibilities can all lead to burnout. This makes high achievers, business owners, executives, and public figures particularly susceptible. Traits common among high achievers—such as perfectionism, a tendency towards pessimism, control issues, relentless ambition, and low self-esteem—can also increase your risk.
