A short conversational clip from Donald Burns' YouTube content where he emphasizes that self-care (body, balance, diet, exercise) is foundational to mindset and leadership energy. The exchange cites simple practices—cardio and eating well—as examples of self-care that sustain passion and performance.
Hear me talk about a lot. You see it on my Instagram, you see in my pod, you know, we talk about in the podcast, in the books, self care. Self care, I feel is so part it actually goes back to that mindset stuff, because if you don't take care of yourself, your body, your being, your balance and also especially your body, you just don't have that energy and that drive and that just passion inside of it. What do you do to take care of yourself?
No, we'll do cardio. We, you know, we eat.
Good.
Anyways, my wife is Bulgarian and I'm Greek, so we do that Mediterranean diet, you know, meditation, journaling. It's easy now because my wife does it as well. So this is just our lifestyle, how we live.
If your restaurant only works because you work 80 hours a week, it doesn't work.
