Take time off, regroup, and come back when you can. Consider the real reasons behind why you think so.

Some can be completely fulfilled with destinations that are much closer to home and more comfortable.

To places that are sweeter because you worked so hard to arrive there. To places at the very edge of your dreams.” Michael Johnson, American sprinter
