Strategies to Avoid Burnout and Pick Up the Ball AgainOnce I reframed The Lyran Legacy, I started taking small, manageable steps to avoid future burnout and rekindle my excitement for the project. Here’s what worked for me:
  1. Reassess priorities: I made a list of everything I was working on and identified what could be paused, delegated, or simplified. This created space to breathe.
  2. Set realistic goals: Instead of trying to do all the marketing at once, I focused on one actionable step per week, such as scheduling a podcast interview or posting on social media.
  3. Revisit your "why": Remembering why I wrote the book—to tell an inspiring story and connect with readers—helped reignite my passion.
  4. Schedule downtime: Burnout thrives in an overpacked schedule. By penciling in rest and relaxation, I gave myself permission to recharge without guilt.
