[BAWD #26] On Burnout, Working Hard, and Jamstack eCommerce
Hello there šš¾,
I trust you had a blissful week?! Btw, hereās a friendly reminder that burnout and working hard are not the same thing. There seems to be a glorification of burnout as a measure of success or hard work. This alone has made some normalize and give themselves prizes for burning out instead of finding ways to curb it. You donāt need to burn out to work hard; please take good care of yourself and stop giving yourself a badge of honor for burning out.
