Causes of Stress

John, At a guess, you are a wonderful instructor and someone who your students rely on daily. This is great direction. At the same time, it is only possible to help so many students and after that point is reached, you may burn out. When you burn out, you can't help the people who need you the most. My recommendation is to pace yourself and give yourself the time you need. This may be a challenge to do at first. You may feel guilty about your focus on you. The reality is though, your students will be better for it. When you are rested and when you have taken the time to solve the challenges that you face in your own work and personal life, you are in a better position to help them.
