A startup business is a great place to get worn out. If you find yourself in that sad state, here's some great advice from Tara Rodden Robinson. It appears she was running low on MOXIE, but caught herself in time.
Looking back, there were warning signs.
* Going through the motions.
* Heard it all before.* Stale. All my ideas were past their expiration dates.
* Attention span on empty.
Don’t let this happen to you. If you see these signs, then stop, drop, and roll.
Stop: running around only fans the flames that are burning you out.
Drop: out of sight, out of mind, out of your routine, out of your daily normal.
Roll: in the grass, in the sunshine, in the ease of an unplanned, spontaneous day.
Thanks, Tara! Every so often we all need permission to crash productively.



Any time, Tara. Valuable messages deserve to be spread around. Regards,
Jim
