- sokoloff 18y agoAmusing the order you chose.
- rudyfink 18y agoThe order is even in a song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmZL0fmhTbA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmZL0fmhTbA (have to give it to at least 1:09)
- fallentimes 18y agoBonus points if you can do them both at once. Naps, exercise and eating good food are also effective.

- umjames 18y agoThe sexbox's name is Sony, I believe.
- JMiao 18y agosry, the ps3 is for juveniles who spend more time bragging about how many parallel cores are in their console than actually playing games.
- umjames 18y agoI was actually making a Family Guy reference, but thanks for playing. It wasn't my intention to start a reddit-style PS3/Xbox/Wii flame war. Sorry if that's how it came across.
- DenisM 18y agoThe easiest way to tame burnout for me is Wii Fit balance board. 30 minutes of yoga and balance games cure tiredness like nothing else.
- umjames 18y agoTiredness in the physical sense or the mental sense? I associate burnout with mental fatigue. Sleep is the best cure for physical tiredness, but mental tiredness is much harder to overcome. Probably the best way to prevent mental fatigue is to force yourself to do different things on a regular basis. It's all about not getting stuck in a rut. I find that my mind needs to feel a sense of accomplishment to keep me from feeling burnout. Even an "easy win" is better than no win at all.
- PStamatiou 18y agofor me, curing mental burnout deals with clearing out stuff in my physical and digital space. for starters, cleaning up my apartment, having a clean desk and workspace, not having drawers full of crap and getting rid of extraneous stuff. in terms of digital space, I'll clear out my desktop, organize to-do lists and order what I need to do and what is most important. I need not expand on this as it is echoed on every GTD blog on the planet.
- igorhvr 18y ago> Sleep is the best cure for physical tiredness, but mental tiredness is much harder to overcome. I believe it is exactly backwards. For several times in my life I got myself in a shape where I went to the gym and did my full routine, yet felt mentally so tired I could only think in the same way a drunk person would. For me, at least, sleep deprivation taxes the mind much quicker and much heavier than it taxes the body. Good quality sleep without an alarm clock seems to be the best way to handle mental exhaustion.
- DenisM 18y agoMental. When I get back from my day job (software design) I often feel metnally exhausted. Half-hour on wii fit makes me feel a lot better and ready to do my startup thingie.
