How to fight fatigue, demotivation and stress at work

How to understand the transition from stress and demotivation to emotional balance?

Work or your professional life and development involves a large investment of daily hours and conditions a large part of your well-being and personal life. and personal life. It can be a daily motivating challenge that makes you grow or, on the contrary, it can be a source of stress, fatigue and demotivation.

However, in many cases the problem is not in the work... but in how we feel when facing it.

Stress, but also fatigue (without any apparent justification), demotivation or discouragement are often a source of discomfort and above all confusion when it comes to work. We feel that nothing makes sense and we do not know where these feelings come from. In many occasions this happens in moments where, objectively, everything seems to be going as well as possible, but the motivation and illusion that we felt some time ago seems to have vanished.

Emotional balance at work

The key so that your work is harmonized with your personal life and to obtain more and better results and that it is really motivating is not exactly what you do but how you do it.

In that sense, personal skills are fundamental to know what is happening and how to solve it. What really conditions you in your work or professional life? It is above all psychological and emotional factors: how you feel, how you manage your emotions, how you relate or communicate with others, your degree of confidence or security, or even your self-esteem.

First and foremost, we are human beings, social and emotional, and we do not cease to be human beings at work.. Especially in working life, our way of understanding and managing our emotions, our way of relating, communicating, and also intrinsic motivation (i.e., that your enthusiasm is managed by you and not by external factors, which are impossible for us to control) come into play.

Demotivation as a psychological and emotional factor

At certain times in our lives we feel tired, unmotivated and stressed at work because we are not knowing how to manage situations and above all our own state of mind.. In other situations, which are becoming more and more common in consultation, discouragement at work occurs after a period of time (sometimes years) very intense, full of enthusiasm and success, and also full of impulsivity and energy.

Motivation and drive are also emotional states that have to be managed in order to be balanced.And when there is a very long period of time of high energy and enthusiasm, eventually we can reach the opposite extreme, leaving your well-being in the hands of external factors that you cannot control.

In the last 10 years I have accompanied in processes of change to people who wanted to improve their professional life but because they had lost the illusion, focus and encouragement to continue and enjoy their work and professional life. Sometimes, there was also confusion and difficulty in making decisions, as they did not know which path to follow. In these cases, learning to know yourself, to understand and manage both your discouragement and your insecurity and fears, is fundamental for the change to take place in you. so that the change takes place in you and is stable.

In this video I will explain to you much better what can cause this tiredness, demotivation and stress, and above all, how you can solve it thanks to your own personal change.

When your well-being depends on external factors, being these factors that you can not control (certain moments of your life, the attitude of others, certain specific results for living in simpler or prosperous times), we end up feeling frustration and anxiety and in the long run these feelings turn into discouragement and loss of control (demotivation).

When you know how to understand and manage your emotional world, your well-being depends mainly on what you do, how you do it, and how you interpret what happens to others.. This is how you regain your balance, but it involves living a process of personal change where the changes come precisely through your own change. That is what will stay with you forever and what will help you return to enjoy, with balance, your professional life so that you can also harmonize it with your personal life, forming part of a whole based on trust and tranquility.
