Most people are running hot. Maybe they don't own their calendar and schedule and are a slave to someone else's expectations of their time, maybe they run thin financially, maybe they make poor health choices most days, or maybe they have no relationship capital built up, so they recieve guilt and shame for addressing other priorities. You can have it all, but you must stop running hot. You must create margin in your life and business.

The primary elements of this episode are:

  1. I used to run super hot, with very little downtime or replenishment and restoration time. My entire life suffered because I thought running hot was how to become successful. 
  2. On a car, the RPM gauge shows you where the car is in the danger zone, and that is where there is the presence of unnecessary stress on the machine. Most people are running well in the red. 
  3. Spend time creating margin in your life so that you can breathe. Running hot is only necessary when you're living someone else's dream - not your own. Success without the stress is my goal, everyday.
