025 - Implementing Required Breaks to Prevent Burnout
Passion can wain. Life gets busy. Schedules become overloaded. It's easy to get overwhelmed and lose focus.
In order to better serve you and in spirit of long game viability,
Starting this week, I will begin to implement "small scale sabbaticals" (as my friend Sean McCabe calls it). What does that mean for the show? Every four weeks, I'll take a required week off from episodes.
Why? Because I care about Steady Focused. I care about you. I value your time and your attention. I also know myself. I want Steady Focused to be around for years and years to come, providing value. This week I took a serious look in the mirror and took another step towards true self awareness.
I was at am impasse. I found myself in a situation where it had been three weeks since the last episode release. Many of you were asking, how things were going and when the next episode would drop. I've been tremendously productive, traveling the country... shooting, learning and growing. But, I was not being true to a commitment I made to myself, to the commitment I made to you.
Come along with me, as we discuss the importance of implementing regularly scheduled breaks to avoid burnout.
