At the end of 2018, I entered a chaotic period that lasted until January 2019. During this period, I noticed some clear symptoms of burnout. This post is about what I’ve learned from journaling throughout this burnout period.
At the end of 2018, I said specifically that I wanted to start 2019 taking life easier. Well, that failed. I was stressed a lot this January, which resulted in sleepless nights, shitty days at work and a relatively low average happiness rating.
July might have been my most productive month ever! Not only was my work pretty busy, I also tried to push myself on some other fronts in my life. And I was pretty happy as a result! My biggest positive happiness factor this month was my relationship. I loved spending quality time with my girlfriend in July!

Man, I have no idea how but June flew by super fast to me. It was another good month for me with a lot of great moments and happy times. June consisted of quite a bit of relaxing and spending time with my girlfriend. The weather was great and we enjoyed a nice little holiday in Portugal.
I spent a lot of time working abroad in July. I had to visit two seperate projects, which were pretty demanding to my life and therefore my happiness. It was challenging to stay as happy as I usually was in these tough conditions. I want to show you exactly how I did, and what influenced my happiness!

April was one of the most busy months for me in 2017. My work was extremely busy at the time, which caused me to feel drained on a lot of days.
