ROSENBERG AP Business Writer NEW YORK (AP) — Burnout has long been a prob- lem for small business owners who throw themselves into their companies. The struggling economy makes it worse. The signs are clear: exhaustion, irritability, forgetful- ness, a feeling of being overwhelmed. Worse, an owner doesn't seem to find much joy in this business that he or she used to be excited about. Owners who have suffered from burnout learn that it can be alleviated, even prevented. They get more balance in their lives, learn not to carry their burdens by them- selves and to take better care of themselves physically. For example: have a social life, build a support system and get some exercise and a good night's sleep. Know the warning signs Paying attention to yourself and how you're feeling can help stop burnout early. “I feel myself getting tired on nights and weekends and that's my cue to step back,” said Lyn Mettler, founder of Step Ahead Inc., a Charleston, S.C.-based company that creates and manages social media publicity campaigns. It's also the point when Mettler starts to take better care of herself. “If I burn out, we're in real trouble.” Avi Karnani and Matt Wallert are on the lookout for burnout not only in themselves, but also in the employees of their New York-based startup advisory firm, Churnless. “The moment I see people being short-tempered with well, you're not going to be able to function well.” Many owners might think, I just don't have time to each other,” Wallert said, he knows that burnout has arrived. Paige said she and her partner, Sherene Costanzo, worry about all that. But burnout takes away some of the started burning out about five months ago, when they were time and energy you need to run your company.

Healthy Galley.

AP — Don't be intimidated by the thought of making your own pasta. As demonstrated by this recipe for potato dumplings from the Italian Academy of Cuisine's “La Cucina: The Regional Cooking of Italy,” it's not much harder than playing with clay.
