“I wish I could go back and tell myself that not only is there no trade-off between living a well-rounded life and high performance, performance is actually improved when our lives include time for renewal, wisdom, wonder and giving. That would have saved me a lot of unnecessary stress, burnout and exhaustion.” –Arianna Huffington
No one can go full speed all day, every day.
Professional athletes know this, as do top performers in the arts and sciences.
Yet for business professionals, taking a break is not nearly the norm and in fact often seen as a sign of weakness.
Listen to your body, tune in, and let yourself re-charge so you can truly perform at your peak potential.
