Recenzii
"Dr Gerald L. Fishkin brings us in this small book a good summary of the problem of modern life : we live under stressed conditions at work, in everyday life in general and in our homes and families. This stress creates anxiety, depression and eventually the burnout effect in people who can go as far as becoming completely alienated and longing for the end of their suffering, including in death. This is nothing new, but this is increased by two things : the ever-faster pace of our lifestyle and of course the simple fact that we live longer. The suffering is perfectly well described and the solutions are perfectly well explained with a strong emphasis on the fact that they have to come from within us, and if a no return point has been reached, they have to be inoculated inside us in order to reconstruct what stress may have destroyed. The most important fact in this book is that this burnout concerns everyone and first of all either those who have to deal with other people's problems like teachers, priests and doctors, or those who are constantly under the pressure of superiors or the demands of an unescapable system."
“Among the hundreds of cases I see every year, burnout is a surprisingly common thread. Dr. Fishkin has written the definitive book on overcoming burnout.”
“This book outlines the dangers of worshipping the trappings of societal success, and challenges us to redefine ourselves in ways that support a better sense of who we are. It insightfully explores the attitudes and values that undermine our well being and provides a valuable guide from the stress and unrealistic expectations that binds our creative spirit.”
