Managing Burnout in Creative and Competitive Fields

It’s no secret that fields like esports and lighting design demand intense focus and creativity, but I’ve noticed how easy it is to hit a wall when you’re constantly pushing yourself. I’m curious what strategies have helped you balance high performance with avoiding burnout? Do you find that taking regular breaks, switching up your routine, or maybe integrating some form of physical activity makes a difference? I’d love to hear what’s worked for others in staying sharp without burning out.
