I believe there is no burnout when you have a cleaner connection to your source of inspiration. I don't burnout, but I go through physical exhaustion that puts me to sleep. When you are inspired, or "in spirit" you are closest to your potential because you are connected to goodness.

How to “manifest” your dreams into reality Most of us would agree that in order to make a dream into reality, we’ve got to have faith that it will happen. What many fail to realize is that putting our faith in the negative is just as easy as putting our faith in the positive, and that will bring us less-than-ideal results. We can manifest our dreams and desires by taking them from a possibility to a probability to our perspective, but we can also manifest the negative if that’s where we put our faith. If you put faith in your fears, you’ll manifest your fears. Take commonplace inner thoughts like, “I'm going to tank this interview.” or “I hope that question is not on my final exam.” for example. What do you think will happen if you continuously think these things? More often than not, your fears will come true. Put faith in what you want, think about it in terms of nourishment, feed what you believe in and starve your doubts. Come ask me questions live every Friday during my Free Training.

As you may know, what people refer to as “mommy issues” or “daddy issues” are typically a result of the relationships you had with your mother or father when you were growing up, or maybe even how the relationship remains today. These terms were originally developed and understood through a psychoanalytic lens, through the work of people like Sigmund Freud and Carl Yung, who believed that young boys were in competition with their fathers and young girls were in competition with their mothers. However, today, we know it’s about much more than this. Simply put, mommy or daddy issues (which, by the way, are terms that are thrown around way too loosely) are the psychological effects lasting into adulthood that are caused by childhood relationships with a mother or father figure. All this being said, everybody is different and has their own unique experiences and issues. Different childhoods and parent-child relationships can result in different outcomes in adulthood, and conversely, somebody who has a rough childhood won’t always have mommy or daddy issues. Plus, as previously mentioned, these terms are casually overused, often without a clear understanding of the root cause of an individual’s problem is. It’s too often used to blame and label rather than describe or understand.
