Avoiding Burnout
Many people make cam work sound easy. However, it’s anything but. So, just how do you avoid both physical and creative fatigue?
“If anyone figures out how to avoid burnout altogether, please let me know!” says performer Jessica Starling, who notes that the nature of running an online business solo makes periodic burnout inevitable. However, there are ways to limit the frequency and length of the burnout.
Starling emphasizes that it’s important to schedule your days properly, “so you can make sure everything that needs to be done, gets done. Rushing to complete things last minute all the time is a recipe for fast burnout. If you are sick, take time off.”
Downtime and breaks are also high on Starling’s list. Being aware of when burnout is imminent is just as vital.
