JEFF DELEON, CEO OF HOLOVIT

There is no regular downtime when it comes to serving the needy and fundraising to keep a nonprofit organisation running—this never-ending demand means constant deadlines and a steady stream of emergencies.

How to Deal with it.

• Schedule Time Off. Plan...

• Pick a regular (sedentary) part of your routine and switch it out for an active choice: Instead of the elevator, take the stairs;
• Commit to movement after the most frustrating, stressful part of your week:  after a weekly meeting or work task;
• Work out while you watch TV: you...

• In business, to be a success, you only have to be right once.
• One single time and you are set for life. That’s the beauty of the business world.
• With every mistake and failure (not only mine, but also of those around me), I learned what not to do.
