I have yet to meet an effective leader who does not posses nearly extraordinary stamina. Keeping that stamina going means keeping yourself healthy and rested. Far too many leaders burn themselves out long before their organization has achieved its potential because they didn't keep their own batteries recharged. When you're running at full throttle you need to take time to take care of yourself. Emotionally and physically. That may be as simple as a short meditation or a full-on workout, a hobby that indulges you, a philanthropic cause, or a spontaneous getaway. Whatever it is, the purpose is to avoid burnout, stay centered, and remind yourself of why you're making the sacrifices you're making.
