Burnout, ubiquitous technology, and new rules for remote work are kind of killing us softly.

Those three drivers are causing work to no longer work for us. The whole system is going to break.

And that break will start with the people within the system. It's us.

From the news team at LinkedIn, I'm Jesse Hempel and this is Hello Monday.

It's our show about the changing nature of work and how that work is changing all of us.

Of course, change feels like too small for what's really going on right now.

It feels like work is breaking, doesn't it? I think it's fair to say it's that

high stakes. And the goal for all of us, indeed the challenge, is that we need to figure out how

to change before that work breaks us. Burnout is everywhere. Technology follows us into every

corner of our lives. We are still arguing about how many days we should be in the office. But the old models of productivity, they were built for a different era, the industrial revolution. When our worth was measured in widgets produced and output per minute, that model doesn't align with work as it exists today. I'm not telling you something you don't

know. And if we don't rethink work, well, the system won't just bend, it will break, and that

break will start with us. My guest today is Natalie Nixon. She is a creativity strategist and

author of the new book, Move, Think, Rest.

Natalie says it isn't about figuring out how to be more productive.

It's about rethinking what productivity is.

She has a framework for this.

She calls it the Motor Framework.

I love this.

It's MTR, Move, Think, Rest.

Here's Natalie.

So the first Industrial Revolution model productivity is based, it's kind of what I call an either-or model.

It's based on speed, efficiency, you measure what you can see.
