Reading time: 1 quick minute

Hi Reader!

I’ve been MIA for a few days (thank you for your messages, again!), and here's why (and it ties directly into something I teach my empire builders about sustainable success).

You see, between holiday festivities, work commitments, and fighting off feeling a little puny, my body was sending some pretty clear signals. And while the “hustle culture” part of my brain was screaming “push through!” my high performance brain knew better.

I chose sleep over writing emails, reading, and even eating cookies. (I know you know that's a big deal for me! 😂)

Here’s the truth:

Just like a Formula 1 car needs more careful maintenance than your average sedan, high-performing authors need to be particular about their energy management.Think about it: Would you rather…

- Push through and produce mediocre work while feeling awful
- Or rest strategically and come back ready to create something extraordinary?

I chose the latter. And you know what? During those extra hours of sleep, while my body was getting better, my brain was actually solving problems and generating ideas (funny how that works!).

Tomorrow, I’ll share about a completely counterintuitive way to scale your book business. But for now, I want you to ask yourself: Are you being “high maintenance” enough about your rest?

Sweet dreams and I'll see you tomorrow!
