Mr. Bean's Burnout Blunder
Well just like my encounters with the pesky blue car burnout caught up with me. A whole year and a half spent exploring South America and Asia to escape my daily grind. $34,000 down the drain and all I got were a few apathetic stares in Korea.
Lessons Learned the Bean Way
Eureka! I didn't need to change my location; I needed to change my mindset. No more militaristic schedules! I was approaching my sabbatical like a workaholic. I mean who needs that?!
Bucket List Bonanza
I slashed my sabbatical bucket list in half! Quality over quantity just like choosing the best episodes of 'Mr. Bean' right? Who says you need to boast about visiting 50 countries? Aha!
The FOMO Chronicles
I learned to embrace missing out on the buzzy stuff. Sorry Pai backpacker paradise I'm savoring coffee in Chiang Mai instead. FOMO? More like 'Finding One's Maturity Oh!'
Goodbye Freelancing Frenzy
Freelancing? More like 'free falling' into burnout. Time to let go. Forget pitches start learning real stuff. I'm a curious human now not just a worker bee.
The Jovial Journey Continues
Home sweet home. But the lessons persist. Meditate journal walk — good ol' 'Bean ing' techniques to keep the burnout at bay and the joy in play. Who knew my sabbatical would be the ultimate episode of 'Mr. Bean's Do It Yourself Guide to Happiness?'
