'The Burnout Generation': Millennials And The Mindset Of 'Working All The Time'


Anne Helen Petersen

Burnout. It’s that feeling beyond exhaustion where you keep pushing yourself, past the point where you even know why you’re pushing at all.

"temporary affliction … it’s the millennial condition. It’s our base temperature. It’s our background music. It’s the way things are. It’s our lives."

- working hard all the time and then fixed with a relaxing beach vacation is what she thought burnout was
- background noise in her life was the burnout and when she realised this she felt a relief

- "We have
flattened our lives into to-do lists
."
 
- It flattens things that should be joyful into this incredible to-do list that feels the opposite of joyful.
