This is similar to what I went through dropping work down from 7 days a week to 6, and then to 5. Clients always appear. If they had their way, I would still be working all 7 days a week, preferably 24 hours a day.
As to those who are commenting about being "forced" to take the day off, I am not sure you are getting the point the author is trying to make. The whole point is not being burned out. Adding another job is a great way to reach burn-out faster.
Notice I say "job." In my book, this does not include hobbies. Which, to the outside observer, may look like work only because I use many of the same tools.
And if you really want to work that hard (and it was easier to get away with it when I was younger) maybe this is not the right employment for you...
FWIW. I have cycled through burn-out several times, and I prefer living a healthy lifestyle, if at all possible.
(Edited to be a bit less harsh than my first wording - Sorry).
