Brain Overload - Need Motivation

This time of the year can bring about a brain overload which can result in burnout, exhaustion, and fatigue. These may arise from the mental pressure of the focused concentration necessary to arrange all matters that have to be done to make this holiday time a success. What with the business closing down all reports, ordering etc have to be finished before you can have that break. All of the arrangements for the break, food, travel, presents the list just goes on and on. Then there are the functions, why oh why has no one realised that there are only three weekends in December to have the Christmas functions? Brain overload, if gone unchecked, can result in depression, stress, and even anger if you continue to push after the drain has set in. So even though you need to keep your things going non-stop, you would be much more productive if at the first sign of brain overload, you took a break and did something about it.

Here are some of the signs you might be suffering from brain overload.

* Mental exhaustion.
* Annoyance when thinking about what you have to do.
* Putting off certain tasks because they are “too hard to think about.”
* Snipping at other people who are not moving fast enough.
* Feeling as if the harder you work, the farther behind you get.
* Feeling depressed, stressed out, or as if you can’t keep up mentally with your task list.

In a future article I will offer my suggestions as how to cope with or even handle this brain overload.
