J.R. also explore how resilient leaders must pace themselves, especially as we don’t know how long this leadership race will be. Leaders must:

1.    Pace themselves, imaging they are in a leadership marathon

2.    Run when they can, and walk when they need – it’s okay to take breaks.

3.    Look for other leaders and people to encourage. It helps to encourage you, too.
