Addicted to working? | Cape Town Vlog | Trying to deal with burnout

I'm burnt out and gonna try surf it out today.

About trying2adult:

My name is Tino and shortly after I got out of varsity, I quickly realised that adulting was the ghetto. There's just so much I don't know... and no one teaches you these things we need to know when we grow up. So join me as I try to navigate adulthood, exploring topics like career, money, health, and I vlog too! If you enjoyed the video, subscribe to my channel for more content!

" I've been burnt out ever since varsity." 🤣 highly relatable!

I think being okay with sharing videos whereby you share problems without solutions is a green flag. Knowing and accepting that you won't always have the answers to questions is a view that can be applied to achievements/failures.

Burn out is real!!!

I resigned from my job at AWS because of it and honestly, it was the best decision I've made in years :D

I am where you are at right now…in burnout and I can empathize it sucks! For me I am taking 2 weeks off and not doing work at all. Exercise has been helping for me as well. After talking to my life coach, we decided that I am going to be an a plus me and that I am only going to be above average at work a c plus. This is a hard concept because I think you like myself throw our full self into what we do. I am going to give it a roll though. Failure is also one of my biggest fears. I think I am so afraid of failure because I apply tit to my self worth. Failure isn’t that. Failure doesn’t, mean I am a bad person it means I have a learning experience. It makes me come back stronger and allows me to get more clarity about why I failed. Failure is a part of life and is healthy if we see it for that learning experience as opposed to saying that we are bad people. Sending you good vibes. I hope you ease out of your burnout soon.

Success people have one simple thing and that thing is "routine" and that routine is "consistency".

I can relate to you. Return to the gym helped me reduce the feeling of burning out.

I love your videos Tino, damn. It’s so relatable. I’m not a workaholic though, I’m the opposite 🙈. I’m so scared of failing to the point that I do nothing. And that’s quite evident in my career progression and personal life.

I always see people talk about being hyper productive (like you) and I wish I could get even 10% then my life will jump so many leaps.

“Gallivanting the whole Western Cape” sounding like an African father scolding yourself😂😂😂. All this so relatable, adulthood hey😅🚮

I don’t know how I landed on this vid, but I needed to hear this 😩🥺

[kyrianalutu]

Starting off with my CompTIA certs and hearing how far you are with AWS and Linux just gives me motivation to keep studying harder

[chiratidzomatowe]

You really funny😂, please keep creating more content....

[RelateWithRele]

Thank you for creating this chanel, specially for making this video. It's so relatable.

In the states we call it "despair". Used to be, you could work your way out.

[kyrianalutu]

Lol I'm not a psychologist but I personally wouldn't lower my expectations. I would keep in mind that failure is a part of life and expect it but keep trying, in better ways to achieve better results on my next attempt at the challenge presented to me.

[slenkx]

Just want to say, I really miss you man. I am sure life has got you picked up, but just checking, are you gonna have an update, lets see the scene from the UK :)

[kyrianalutu]

Can compleely relate and aye! love your lifestyle

[aphelelezenani]

Ello Mr Tino🙋.
First of all I have to say that your content is quite informative so thank you for it.
As someone who has done BEng in ECE at UCT I would like to ask you to please advise me on buying a laptop as I plan on doing the same degree next year. Namely what I am humbly asking of you is to inform me how buying an M1 MacBook Air would disadvantage me(and if these these disadvantages are total deal breakers for ECE) and maybe recommend a few alternative windows machines in the R10K-R20K range
