Some people struggle to relax because they equate rest with laziness. This “productivity guilt” often stems from societal pressure or self-worth being tied to accomplishments. But chronic overworking leads to burnout, not success. How do you give yourself permission to rest?
 
I got no problem with rest from work, but when I'm at work I'm trying to seem busy all the time, and much of that situation is due to a long past of employment failure and dismissal.
