I switched my workout to yoga in the evening before bed to help get my mind to wind down. The changes it has made for my life and well being have been astronomical. I think the main issue here is to get enough sleep when you can, especially in today’s society where rest is viewed as only for the wicked. I for one have always been a fan of the good old fashion nap, but in order to do any of this you have to pull yourself away from that internet.

You make a very good point about delegation. It's a very good rule to follow. Ever read The 4-Hour Work Week? I'm intrigued by the delegation ideas it promotes. Thanks Rolf.

I like de-clutter and simplify the best, because it allows you to prevent energy loss by taking small steps every day. Usually, as soon as we're really burnt out, we're not that effective in re-energizing ourselves... One more strategy is to delegate. You've also mentioned toxic relationships above but great relationships harbor some dangers too. Don't hijack the responsibilities of others, just because you think they can't handle them or because you want to be nice. Very helpful collection of strategies!
