**Time and time again I end up quoting Einstein to my physician burnout coaching clients.**

The two quotes in this short video are so powerful when it comes to recognizing and reversing physician burnout. Learn them by heart and live them in your practice and your life. You will be way ahead of the game when you do.

I am not sure what the link is between physics and work-life balance. Perhaps there are basic and immutable laws that apply in both arenas. All I know is when I am working with client on physician burnout issues** ... all you have to do is memorize these two laws and then live them and you will quickly reverse the downward spiral.**

## **Please leave a comment:**

**How do you use these physician burnout preventing principles in your life?**
