Eyes Wide Open with Nick Thompson | LESSONS LEARNED! Burnout and My Decision to UnPlug with Nick Thompson @EyesWideOpenContent | Uploaded August 2024 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
I took a much-needed summer sabbatical from social media.

The pressure to produce led me to a place where I would "finish my day" late in the evening and then sit down to create content as if that was some way to rest.

I was burning out fast. I can always recognize the signs, and this time, I decided to take a break from pressuring myself to show up online.

To some people, it might seem counterintuitive to unplug. But let me tell you, it was a game-changer to just take a break from posting on LinkedIn.

I learned a few things I'd like to share with all of you in this solo episode.

I'm always learning to embrace the ebb and flow of life. There will be times when I am inspired and others when it takes a backseat. And the key takeaway? That's okay with me!

How can you give yourself permission to release yourself from unnecessary pressure, fill your cup, and find a balance so you can show up in the world with your eyes wide open?
