I burned out hard earlier this year and took a 3-month break to recharge. Now I'm trying to figure out how to jump back in without falling into the same patterns. If you've ever stepped away from sales for a while, did it help?

I took a break once and came back with a much clearer idea of my non-negotiables. Saying no to certain deals or clients has helped me avoid burnout this time around.

It did help. I clarified my boundaries.

There's not really a rule book that says I must work until the work is done even though it's an unsaid expectation. Thoughts?
