Yes, if you act in a dumb way, you will burn out. Even those who were at top cannot change a big massive system easily. I saw examples of that. Every change need some amount of energy. Big changes needs massive amounts of energy. Often, it's easier to regrow a new system from scratch than to change old one. To change a system, the changer must be more powerful that the system (happens sometimes, but not my case) OR be smart and ride a situation. Usually, system opposes any change, because risk out-weighs benefits. Very rarely, except in desperate situation, system will accept a shock therapy. So, for a system to accept a change, risks must be reduced. When risks are low and benefits are clear, resistance to change is low too.
