running into the
The Petri
Dish of
Burnout
A How Not-To Guide
by Laurie McGinley
If you are ambitious, working on a mission that you are personally passionate about, and in it to win it, then Running Into the Petri Dish of Burnout: A How Not-To Guide is for you.
It is an easy read and you don’t even have to read the whole thing. What I know to be true is that ambitious World Changers don’t really have time to do a lot of reading. This book is for you because it is light, cuts right to the point, and provides practical tools to help you stay out of the Petri dish of burnout.
You know you don’t have time to take a sabbatical there.
Here are three of the tools I used with Trip (Body Alarm), Olive (Balloon Breath) and Eisen (Gravitas).
