Many high-performing people don’t burn out. They flatten out.
Motivation fades. Decision-making slows. Procrastination creeps in. You still function — but without the energy, confidence, or direction you once had.
From the outside, everything looks fine. On the inside, something feels misaligned.
This isn’t a lack of ambition or resilience. It’s what happens when identity, meaning, and momentum fall out of sync.
