11:11 Tuesdays by Vaishali Wagle June 2, 2026 Happy 11:11 Tuesdays Reader, Here are 1 Thought, 1 Quote, 1 Word and 1 Humour for you to reflect upon this week. 1.ThoughtBurnout at senior levels is often misunderstood. People assume it's the result of long hours, demanding stakeholders, endless meetings across timezones, or ambitious goals. Many senior leaders I have coached have uncovered that burnout is often a values misalignment, not workload issue. Exhaustion was a signal and not a weakness. Burnout often begins when you continue carrying responsibilities, expectations, or ambitions that no longer fit the person you are becoming. You say yes to projects that no longer energise you. The exhaustion isn't always physical, it's the fatigue that comes from spending too much time disconnected from what matters most. Sometimes burnout is not asking you to do less, it is asking you to do what is more aligned. Your energy is often a better truth-teller than your calendar. #Invitation: Short training video on How to become executive ready 1.Quote“The cost of a thing is the amount of life which is required to be exchanged for it.” 1.WordDissonance (n.) — a lack of harmony between what you value and how you are living or leading. 1.HumourIf you liked this and want to share this issue of 11:11 Tuesdays with your friends and colleagues, just send them this link: https://zenesse.kit.com/posts/20260602 Warmly, Vaishali WagleAuthor, Coach, Speaker Zenesse (n.)
