Short YouTube message by Donald Burns advising restaurant owners to prioritize self-care. Recommends regular exercise, healthy meals, and sufficient sleep, arguing that self-care is smart (not selfish) because it sustains physical and mental well-being and improves long-term performance as a restaurant owner.
Make time for regular exercise, healthy meals and sufficient sleep. As restaurant owners, we are horrible at taking time to recharge ourselves. The hospitality industry is one where we give and give to others, but who gives to you? Self care is not selfish, it's smart and the best way to do it is make it a priority. Self care is vital for maintaining your physical and mental well being long term, which in turn is going to improve your performance as a restaurant owner.
If your restaurant only works because you work 80 hours a week, it doesn't work.
