Here's this week's Friday journal reflection prompt: Consider the intersection of values-washing and burnout in your life. Reflect on how inauthentic messages contribute to feelings of disillusionment and exhaustion. How does the discrepancy between stated values and actual behaviors impact your sense of purpose and fulfillment? Reflect on strategies you employ to preserve your mental and emotional well-being amidst the prevalence of values-washing. How do you maintain alignment with your own values and mitigate the risk of burnout in a world saturated with disingenuous messaging?
Journaling prompts can help you set aside dedicated time in your routine for reflection. If Fridays don't work for you, save it for a different day, depending on your preference and availability.
