– Limit #distractions to avoid #burnout

The last thing an entrepreneur eager to develop their business want to hear is advise to slow down to avoid burnout.

If there ever was a time for wanting to make a difference and having meaning in your life, this is it and it is now urgent that we truly come together to turn our hopeless situation around.
