College can pile on more than anyone can carry forever. Burnout isn't a personal failing — it's what happens when you run too long without rest. The good news is it's preventable, and recoverable. Here's how to protect yourself and keep your pace sustainable.
Pacing yourself is how you finish strong
Burnout isn't weakness — it's the cost of running with no recovery. Build rest into your week, set boundaries, drop what you can, and reach out early when the weight builds. Protecting your energy isn't quitting; it's what lets you make it to the finish.
Keep going: protect your wellbeing, manage your time in college, and balance working in college.
