When Success Becomes a Slow Poison
What happens when the very traits that propel you forward-determination, grit, resilience-become the forces that break you down? On a Montana Indian reservation, a young girl absorbed a powerful lesson: work harder than everyone else, push through pain, and success will follow. That girl grew up, earned her MBA, built an impressive consulting career, got married, had children. From the outside, she had it all. But every Sunday evening, a feeling of dread settled over her like a dark cloud. By 2011, her body staged a rebellion she couldn't ignore, landing her on bed rest and forcing a reckoning with a truth millions face but few understand: you can be drowning while everyone around you thinks you're swimming just fine. This personal crisis sparked a decade of research revealing something extraordinary-emotional intelligence separates those who burn out from those who thrive under identical pressures. With nearly 70% of American workers experiencing burnout, understanding this difference isn't just helpful-it's essential for survival.
