Why (and how) burnout kills your creativity

As Arianna Huffington wrote : “Nothing kills creativity faster than burnout."

Creativity depends on an openness to new ideas, freedom to explore, and finding purpose in your work. But all those qualities disappear when you’re burnt out.

“As a metaphor for the draining of energy, burnout refers to the smothering of a fire or the extinguishing of a candle. It implies that once a fire was burning, but the fire cannot continue burning brightly unless there are sufficient resources that keep being replenished.”

- Wilmar Schaufeli, Psychologist
