I just stepped out of my house now and it is 12:am. The lady that does fries in my compound is still selling, and she opens her shop around 8 am in the morning. I believe she would get burnt out eventually.

How can a business person manage running a business to be profitable and getting burnt out along the way?

I have been burnt out myself. Was running so many vital tasks to stabilize the business after we relocated to a new site. And that burnout has equally made me lose a lot of money because things I was supposed to do, I never got to do them.

I keep myself from burnout by making sure that Sundays, I don't work no matter how much is involved.

In my view, an entrepreneur should balance his or her life. He or she needs some time off from his or her own business.

An entrepreneur should not want to exhaust his or her capacity simply because they want to meet all sales.

Delegating jobs is the best thing that the enterpreneur can do. Working with others is the main key for not burning out from work.

To be honest it's not easy, I just take out time to rest once my body gives me sign that I need to rest.

I have also the same feeling. Even if I tried my best to be motivated. There are days that I can still feel being burned down with my work online.

Indeed. As for today, I lessened my working schedule to take a rest. I got tired working these past few days and need to do this.

Proper time scheduling and integration of rest into daily routine would help a entrepreneur avoid burnout.
