成就感可以帮助缓解工作疲劳

Pay Attention to the Signs

注意以下这些迹象

In a great New York magazine story about burnout published in 2006, which I've drawn from throughout this article, Jennifer Senior described the six areas of burnout to watch out for:

1. Working too much.

工作量太大

2. Working in an unjust environment.

不公平的工作环境

3. Working with little social support.

社会支持少

4. Working with little agency or control.

工作几乎没有机构或控制

5. Working in the service of values we loathe.

为我们厌恶的价值观工作

6. Working for insufficient reward, whether the currency is money, prestige, or positive feedback.

获得的酬谢不够，不论是金钱，名望还是积极的反馈。

The effect of burnout is depersonalization, claims Columbia University psychology professor (and burnout sufferer) Barry Farber. In Senior's article, he says that it's not that people are uncaring, but "their level of caring cannot be sustained in the absence of results."

Senior describes it more poetically: "People who are suffering from burnout tend to describe the sensation in metaphors of emptiness -- they're a dry teapot over a high flame, a drained battery that can no longer hold its charge." This is no small thing, and we should all be alert to it
