A “Bucket List” is a personal catalog of endeavors, experiences, or achievements a person aims to accomplish within their lifetime. This term is often used to denote a list of goals, dreams, or aspirations one wishes to fulfill before they ‘kick the bucket’, a colloquial phrase for passing away. It can encompass a wide array of activities, from traveling to exotic places, learning new skills, to achieving significant life milestones.

“Burnout” refers to a state of emotional, mental, and often physical exhaustion brought on by prolonged or repeated stress. Typically associated with work-related stress, burnout is characterized by feelings of overwhelming fatigue, cynicism or detachment from one’s job, and a perceived decline in competence or productivity. It often occurs when a person feels overwhelmed, emotionally drained, and unable to meet constant demands, leading to a decrease in motivation and performance.
