Slow Down But Not Stopping
Whenever I am out of breath from jogging, I will slow down the pace to catch my breath, but I never stop. Whenever I stop my run, I find it hard to get moving again. When I slow down, I can maintain a slower pace and I am still moving towards my target distance. The only time that I have to stop is to making sure I am heading the right direction.
Same in life, you can slow down from your work but never stop. Once we stop, many of us find it hard to get started again. Whenever you find yourself burning out, tell yourself to slow down. There is no urgency and schedule short breaks. Once you feel recovered, you can start moving again. Slow down but not stopping.
