We wear many hats and thus are exposed to many challenges that can come with out warning.  This is a great article to help stay ahead of the burnout that is too come or at least minimize it.</description>

		<description>This is such a nice read! It&#039;s really hard sometimes, especially if you&#039;re experiencing current bumps in your choice of business, that you&#039;re probably thinking of waving that white flag. These tips might come in handy sometime in the future, thanks.</description>

		<description>Well that was loads of information that I can relate to. All I do is sit in front of my computer trying to get my CPA firm started and off the ground. Less fun, less family and friends time. I think I might burning out a little. I just have to be more efficient and save some time for myself. I am glad someone knows what Im going through. Great article.</description>

		<description>Hey Vera...

Great post I have just been working 16 hours a day trying to get three projects off the ground and have finally hit the wall sitting here looking at my sites and can&#039;t think of a solitary thing I should be doing even though none of them are finished yet.

This is some really good advice to help keep the mind clear.</description>

		<description>Great article on burnout.  You are right it certainly does take a lot of blood, sweat, and tears.  

In fact, it&#039;s probably the MOST emotional experience you will ever have trying to earn a living.  

When I look back and think about how hard I worked with so little to show for it I realize the biggest mistake I made was NOT realizing what business I&#039;m really in.  

Then once I understood you aren&#039;t in any business unless you make the business of marketing and selling yourself number one I realized a second hard lesson.  

If you can&#039;t help the people already looking to buy what you sell understand exactly what you can do for them in less than 10 seconds your future will look pretty bleak.  You are in the same boat as the clueless sales representative.  

Some of the things you recommend are great ways to clear the cob webs and let your mind go to work figuring out how to make your business the business of choice for the right people, and how to communicate that.</description>

		<description>Love the post and agree.  For me, I had to develop &quot;my why&quot;.  Why do I want to succeed.  I&#039;m not talking about making more money or buying a bigger house or a new car, but the root why.  For me it was my family and making a better life for them.  The money and house and even the new car all contribute to that.</description>

		<description>Great post, Vera. You have done it again as always. This is one article all business players -- rookie or veteran -- can easily relate to: most of them are either tired of what they are doing or just needing some time off to calm their nerves due to the pressures of being an entrepreneur. Thanks for sharing your ideas.</description>
