It all looks harmless at first: pull a couple of all nighters, sip an extra cup of coffee, take a few additional projects. Cash is flowing in, deadlines are met and business is booming. You? Not so much. Before you know it, you&#8217;re sleep deprived, constantly tired and more sensitive than usual. It&#8217;s hard to work, let alone live.<br \/>\nIf this is you at the moment, take a few minutes to see how fellow creatives dedicate precious time to activities that allow them to unwind. Your work will actually benefit from this much-needed pause: in releasing tensions and opening your mind to new spaces, your creativity is suddenly recharged.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Go_outside\"><\/span> 1.
