Score yourself with the above scale:

only one who can do them.
- Daily crises take up all my time. I have no time to do important things
because I am too busy putting out fires.
- I attempt to do too much at one time. I feel I can do it all, and I rarely
say no.
- I feel unrelenting pressure, as if I am always behind and have no way to
catch up. I am always rushing.
- I am habitually working long hours, ten, twelve, fourteen, even eighteen
hours a day, five, six and seven days a week.
- I constantly feel overwhelmed by demands and details and feel that I have to
do what I don't want to do most of the time.
- I feel guilty about leaving work on time. I don't have sufficient time for
rest or personal relationships. I take worries and problems home.
