Q&A
Q: “I’m working too many hours and I can feel myself burning out. What should I do?” – D. Cain (Buffalo, NY)
JJ Singh, Founder & CEO: The start of the year is incredibly tough for everyone – not only are we re-engaging after the holidays, but we have all the pressures of a whole year of financial goals ahead of us.
So, start by giving yourself the same grace you would give to others.
The most important step – like so many things in life – is to admit there is a problem and to speak with your supervisor about it.
Before you have that conversation, make sure to put your thoughts down on paper in a list that summarizes the below:
- Problems
- Impact
- Proposed Solutions
I would highly recommend limiting yourself to three items for each of these lists, not because I have any scientific data to back this up but because I know that three items won’t be too much for your supervisor to process. From traffic lights to strikes in baseball to medals in the Olympics, our brains just like it when we organize ideas in groups of threes.
This will help you organize your thoughts for your discussion so that you’re focused on solving the problems and steering the conversation in that direction.
It’s also something you should cut and paste into an email for your supervisor after this chat so that they have something to refer back to that matches your conversation. They’re going to also be a bit overwhelmed trying to solve this for you shortly and while they’ll have their own knows from your discussion, this kind of email gives them something they can share with their boss or HR to make sure the solution they provide is in line with company policy.
And, lastly, good luck!
