The thing is, there are at least four major factors that lead to the energy depletion of burnout:
- physical (i'm unhealthy, don't sleep, eat or exercise well)
- mental (i'm distracted and interrupted constantly or don't let my brain rest)
- emotional (i work in a culture of terror with people who trigger me)
- meaning - (i simply don't care about what i'm doing and neither do my colleagues)
all of these are necessary, and none are sufficient. most orgs and people are breaking along more than one of these dimensions, and the co-morbidity makes it hard to diagnose the cause of burnout.
