Mental Exhaustion


These past 2 weeks I have been so much more productive than I have ever been. I feel as though things have finally clicked. I am setting goals, taking massive action, planning my weeks, doing what I say I’m going to do. I’m providing value to the world. Seeing results. I truly feel like a newer and better version of myself.

But I am so exhausted. It’s all mental as I can go for a walk when I feel this way. It’s just my brain that feels fried. I crave breaks of just staring at my ceiling I’m so tired. I keep having these dread thoughts of “will it always be like this?” “Do I have to feel this exhausted all the time to get things done?” “Can I do this forever?”

I am working more than 40 hours right now. But this is because I am creating a business while maintaining another job. I expect this to change in the near future.

Here are some models I have done:

C: I am exhausted
T: This fatigue is from you becoming a new version of yourself. It is worth it.
F: Motivated
A: Continue on
R: Become acclimated to the work level I’m doing now and hopefully the tiredness fades

C: I am exhausted
T: If this is just what it takes to be the person I want to be, then I’m all in any way.
F: Motivated
A: Continue on
R: Be amazing despite feeling tired

Do you have any thoughts on other things I can think? Or any advice for mental fatigue?
