The Type A Trap: Five Mindset Shifts to Beat Burnout and Transform Your Life - Hardcover

by Erin Stafford (Author)

Have you ever accomplished something fabulous but been too broken and burned out to actually enjoy it?

This is the Type A Trap. What helps us succeed early in our career--the hustle, grind, long hours, and hard work--can be the very thing that leads us to burn out later. But because this behavior is so engrained in who we are, we don't know any other way. We've gotten ahead in every aspect of life through hard work, but unfortunately, this tactic doesn't work with burnout, which can be deceiving and sneak up on you over time. And then, before you know it, you've fallen into its trap.

To escape, we do what we do best--just work harder. But this only leads to more exhaustion. More disillusionment. More burnout.

So how do we stay at peak performance without burning out?

After interviewing, studying, and surveying thousands of peak performers from all different walks of life, including Olympians, New York Times bestselling authors, leading doctors, celebrity coaches, retired US Navy SEALs, Fortune 500 founders, and people like you looking for a way out of burnout's grip, Erin Stafford has unlocked five mindset shifts to move from burnout to sustainable peak performance.

Erin's practical, easy-to-implement tools and mindset shifts will help you break free from burnout to thrive again on the other side, and will leave you feeling inspired, motivated, reengaged, and fired up again--not only about your work, but also about your life.
