Since I've put so much effort and time into building this business from the ground up I'm finding it very difficult to picture giving it all up. I'm expecting a large pay day in the next week or so from a big project I'm wrapping up now so maybe I'll take that money and use it to take a break from doing design work. I know my clients will be disappointed but I need to move past this point or its only going to get worse I imagine.
I just feel "burnt out" for lack of a better phrase. Like I've been trying so hard for so long I'm just exhausted. |
What I'm feeling is you should branch off and try different things. (Don't put all your focus on one thing). This is what I have been thinking about for a good amount of time. I know I love music and I love sports..but if I just go in one direction and not the other I'll feel I'll burn out and lose my passion for the other. I think this is where branching off comes in and that'll help keep your energy and motivation high. I think steve wrote an article about this::: pursing many passions or something like that.

What If You Have Many Different Interests and Cannot Commit to Any of Them?
