When we are out there all day grinding, learning, and taking more steps towards our goals, it takes a toll on us. Hustling and going out to the world to take action is essential to reaching our goals, but if you don’t take a break, get some rest, and take care of yourself, you’ll end up taking a step backward instead of moving forward.
If we constantly do this, there is no doubt that we’ll experience burnout. That’s why we should recognize that taking a break is critical.
