    LESSONS LEARNED! Burnout and My Decision to UnPlug with Nick Thompson

    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 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?      Find Nick Thompson here:  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nthompson513/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@EyesWideOpenContent LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nickthompson13/ UCAN Foundation: https://www.ucanfoundation.org/ Website: https://www.engagewithnick.com/
