As a software engineer,  sometimes your grades are related to the amount of work you can complete. Logically, this mindset makes sense. If you can work more efficiently, you'll be more valuable to the organization and probably earn more. Burnout often occurs when you set work standards that are difficult to maintain. Here are some tricks to avoid burnout

       1. Focus on Team Success

       Focusing too much on individual success can blind you to the things you can do to help your team members succeed. For example, instead of looking for more to do when you get your work done, perhaps your time will be better spent helping team members on a problem that can learn from your area of expertise. When you focus on the people around you. You will no longer think of working harder as the only way to provide more value to your team or company.

       2. Do Exercise

      Exercise is very helpful in dealing with stress at work. Exercise has been a very successful way to turn off the brain technique.

This can range from simple walks outside during lunch breaks to intense group fitness classes after work. Practice never fails to make you feel more energized to attack today's problems.

       3. Have Realistic Expectations

When you're struggling to keep up with all your work, it's hard to take the time to talk to people on your team who can help you in these times. I think it's important to have these conversations with your manager or team leader to help you prioritize your work or create an action plan for someone else to take on some responsibilities that don't make sense for you to bear.
