Ever thought about why you're hitting the burnout wall too frequently? Does the concept of instant gratification seem more like a trap than a reward to you? This episode of Business Chef Podcast isn't just an eye-opener, it's a game-changer. As a thriving chef on a mission to build my million-dollar empire, I'm inviting you inside my journey, unmasking the myths of burnout and redefining your idea of work.
Listen closely as I challenge the traditional perception of burnout, suggesting that it's a byproduct of doing something you loathe instead of something you love. I'll guide you through the two main reasons leading to burnout - overworking without seeing results and your uncertainty about the fruitfulness of your efforts. Rather than browning under the pressure of instant results, I encourage embracing the commitment of hard work and delayed gratification. Let's redefine work, transform your perspective and, ultimately, change your life. Tune in.
Speaker 1:
Hey guys, welcome to Business Chef podcast, where we talk about how to make contents personal, brand and monetize your skills online, other than working in the kitchen, so that you can have multiple income source to feed your family, live better life and, most importantly, love yourself. As a chef, I'm on my journey, building a million dollar empire, documenting my process and I'm sharing with all of you. So please share and enjoy. Burnout doesn't exist. It drives me crazy nowadays that you know.
Speaker 1:
If I see people nowadays saying, oh, like I work too much, I'm getting burnt out, like I need a break, I need a vacation, you're simply just doing something that you fucking hate. That's why there's a burnout. Like, just imagine hypothetically, just imagine, imagine you're doing something that you truly love the whole day. Isn't it gonna be fun? You think you're still gonna get a burnout. Just imagine you're doing something that you enjoy the whole day, 14 hours, 15 hours, except the time that you're sleeping, or even when you're sleeping you're dreaming about it, right, and when you wake up, you're just doing that. You, you're just doing something that, whatever that you're enjoying, right, whatever that makes you fun. Just hypothetically, imagine that kind of life. Would you get a burnout? I don't think so. I'm not saying like, you should follow your passion. You should do what you love and be broke. Don't make money like. I'm not saying that because I don't personally believe in doing what I love, because you know like life doesn't always work that way. Right, but what I believe in is knowing how to love what I do. It's a very different approach if you think about it. So, no matter what you do, you're spending 14 hours, 15 hours a day. You have to work if to be in an office, you're doing whatever the fuck you're doing and you fucking hate your life. It's 100% is your fault. You chose to live that kind of life. People say I don't have a choice. And what do I do? I don't know how to do anything. That's exactly it. You don't know how to do anything. That's why, then, what do you have to do? Go learn new things. Go learn new skills. We'll get a new knowledge. Learn how to learn new things or just simply learn how to love what you currently do.
Speaker 1:
Let's think about it this way burnouts for every people. Burnouts come for two reasons. Burn out comes when you overwork and you see no results within a certain timeline. That's when most people gets burnt out, right. But the second reason you don't have a certainty of what you're doing will give you the outcome that you planned. So when people don't have that certainty, when they don't have that conviction, they get burnt out because you never know when it's gonna end. Like you never know until when you have to continue this kind of shit, right. That's when people get burnt out, and that burn out results in self-doubt, lack of confidence, low self esteem and, worst case depression. What I want to tell those kind of people is that learn how to love the commitment of doing the doing without seeing the results.
Speaker 1:
I took this quote from Alex Formoszi. There's a thing that he said delayed gratification, which I strongly believe in. Like your life, you cannot just rely on instant gratification, which means instant results, like paycheck, like one night stand, like it gives you instant pleasure. Like you cannot rely your life on those kind of shit that will make you poor or they will give you depression. They will give you all this burn out and shit. Most people rely on the instant results. They all rely on instant gratification, which very few people in this world. They know how to work really hard without seeing the results, because they know they mentally, they know that that action will give the desired outcome within that certain period of timeline. So I think that's what most people have to know when you know when you're afraid of burnouts, when you're. You know going through a burnout is either you learn how to love what you're doing or you should learn how to do the doing without seeing the results, because instant results are fake, like if you go to work today you'll get a paycheck next week, like that's instant results.
Speaker 1:
But most people don't create content. Most people don't work really hard the first two, three, four years of getting attention so that they can create products and sell to the audience. They don't do those kind of effort right and if you think about it, everybody can do that. When they finish work, when they come back home, they have time to create something. They have time to learn new skills, like they have time to learn to read one book. They have time to to get it like an hour, one hour coaching of new skills learn how to use a new software, learn how to use Photoshop, learn how to use Final Cut Pro, learn how to use the venture itself. Everybody has that one hour every single day.
Speaker 1:
I think it's a fucking excuse when people say, oh, I don't have time, it's just not your priority, like you're not desperate enough and you get burnouts and you're tired again. You're not tired, you chose to be tired. No one's gonna save you. Save yourself real quick, guys, if you're enjoying this podcast. I don't run any ads on this.
