<p><b>Reflection drill: </b>Running full speed ahead can leave you stranded with no fuel. Pace yourself!</p>
<p><b>Why it matters: </b>Take frequent breaks to stretch, breathe, walk around &amp; snack. Take a break! Working for long periods without a break is counterproductive.</p>
<p><b>Thinking drill: </b>When was the last time you stood up from your desk? Or sat down?</p>
<p>How&#8217;s your energy level right now?</p>
<p>What can you do to stop and regroup?</p>
<p><b>What&#8217;s your take away?</b></p>
