  • Dealing with burnout requires treating preparation as a marathon, not a sprint.
  • Combat anxiety by following a disciplined routine that includes at least 7 hours of sleep and regular physical exercise to manage cortisol levels.
  • Practice "Productive Disconnection"—take one full day off weekly to recharge without guilt.
  • Break your massive syllabus into micro-targets to build a sense of achievement.
  • Remember, consistency stems from mental well-being, not just sheer hours.
