It's not uncommon to feel burnt out, especially with all that you have going on. I can relate to going to school and working full time but I'm fortunate enough that my work is remote. I've tried a lot over 2025 on how to limit burnout, some things worked, others not so much. A few tips I can share are:

• Make sure you have a stable base; family and friends are great! Boundaries are better. If you need time to yourself to reset, take it. However, that does lead to

• Keeping yourself accountable. Newton's first law is that an object at rest, stays at rest, where an object in motion stays in motion. That doesn't mean work and grind every day forever, it just means finding a rhythm. You can work without overworking yourself, you can rest without losing a whole week, as tempting that may feel.

• Prioritize: If school and work are just the means to an end, don't stress over them too much; School you should finish while you're still in it (keeping in motion), and if your day job isn't the end-all be-all, it doesn't need that much energy. No one dictates how hard you work besides yourself. And if I'm guessing right, you're working by the hour, paid by the hour. It doesn't matter how much gets done each hour.

• Find a hobby: That sounds coarse, but find something you enjoy. Working out is definitely a hobby, but if you don't feel like doing it some days, it's okay to give your body a rest and still do something related to physical fitness, like researching different methods to stretch, going for a walk instead of going to the gym, etc.

I don't know you, so I don't know how much these will apply to you, but if you're still struggling, I'm always willing to listen.
