This is part of a series on being a sustainable teacher. You can read more about it here and here and here and here and here. I think there are some simple elements that allow for sustainability.
Here are some thoughts and ideas to process, think about, maybe even write about:

I would like to reframe that into,
Winners Know When To Quit
I think that has loads to do with knowing our limits. Part of what I've learned while doing yoga is the difference between the discomfort of my edge versus real pain. I would honestly prefer the pain to how I feel when I'm out of my comfort zone and on the edge all vulnerable and such. {I'm learning loads about that in myself this summer.}

Knowing our limits also mean that we recognize when to cut our losses and walk away from various aspects of what we do because they no longer serve use. I find these sorts of decisions to be especially difficult because there is so little support for them.
