Getting “burned out” is a real thing. I have been there in the past and it can wreck even the very best of us. For me, my productivity and creativity suffered miserably. For some people it happens much quicker than others. Be aware of where that line is for you and make sure not to cross it.
Having time to completely unplug from work needs to be it’s own kind of priority. I’m not saying that you need to take a 3-week vacation and leave your cell phone at home. But I am saying that you need time where you step away from your business or your job. For some, it may be as simple as an hour at the gym a few times a week. By doing this you will be able to re-calibrate, re-prioritize, re-focus, re-energize, and any other positive “re-“ you can think of.
Bottom line, life is hard and people are emotional. Don’t be a tough guy (or tough girl) and think you can burn the candle at both ends without getting burnt.
