Stop doing too much too fast with not enough resources to help your team avoid burnout.
People are tired. You can’t keep shoving 10 lbs of work into a 5 lb bag and expect your team—or yourself—to keep up. If you don’t know what the most important 5 lbs are, you’re slowly driving everyone to burnout.
Founders, sound familiar? You push hard for six months, then hit a wall and need to disappear for a month just to recover. That’s not a work ethic problem—it’s a pacing problem. You’re trying to do too much, too fast, with too little.
Burnout isn’t just about working long hours—it’s about working the wrong way. If you want sustainable success, start by prioritizing what actually moves the needle. Stop running at full speed toward exhaustion and start working smarter.
