"The best burnout advice someone ever gave me is, 'You're not as indispensable as you think you are.' Which sounds mean, but what they were really saying is that I needed to stop feeling like if I ever took any vacations from work or time for myself or said, 'Sorry I don't have time to take that on,' everything would fall apart without me. It's important to be responsible and not flake out on people unnecessarily.
Very few things are actually urgent. Someone once asked me, 'Are you as important as the President of the United States?' Obviously, I’m not! He then said, 'So that email can wait. They can get by without you until tomorrow.' I think of that scenario each time someone says it’s URGENT and needs to be done IMMEDIATELY. Nope. Very few things in life actually have that type of urgency.
