Burnout is caused by several things. Sometimes we are too overworked by our jobs, our coursework or by our extracurricular involvement. As a history major, psychology minor, and receiving 5 teaching certificates, I’ve experienced burnout more than once. What I’ve done to continue my success are just a couple of things that may help you prevent burnout.
1. Get More Sleep
