Sneaky mindsets that make people overcommit and over-identify with their jobs. 🚨 These thoughts feel productive. They're actually destroying your boundaries. You think you're being a team player. You're actually being taken advantage of. Here are the sneaky mindsets keeping you stuck: "I'm the only one who can do this right." No, you're not. You're just afraid to let go of control. This mindset keeps you overworked and prevents your team from growing. "If I just push through this, things will get easier soon." They won't. Overwork doesn't end. It just becomes your new normal. "I owe my loyalty because they gave me this big opportunity." Loyalty is earned, not owed. A job is a transaction. You give value, they pay you. That's it. "A true team player steps up, no matter what." A true team player has boundaries. Saying yes to everything makes you a doormat, not a leader. "If I don't do this, I'll look uncommitted." You'll look smart. Committed people protect their energy. Burnt-out people say yes to everything. "My worth = how much I accomplish." Your worth is not your productivity. This mindset leads to burnout, not success. These beliefs feel noble. They're actually traps.
