Yesterday, I posted
about how I try
every day
to progress
toward key goals.
Every day?
You exclaim.
What about burnout?
Won’t I burnout
if I work every day?
Do your lungs
burnout
because they breathe
every day?
(shakes head)
The brutal truth is…
business builders
don’t get days
completely off
work.
We can plan
for a day off
but emergencies happen
and we have to deal
with those situations.
There is also
so much sh*t to do.
Taking a day off
often leads
to overworking other days.
Our ‘days off’
often consist
of a much lighter
work load
and/or
completing different tasks.
I save ‘fun’ tasks
for my ‘days off.’
Today, for example,
I’m deciding on a name
for my heroine.
I’m writing this blog post.
I’m revising a short story.
Avoiding burnout
doesn’t have to mean
avoiding the business
or not working at all.
