Off

I’ve wanted to get into the habit of switching off completely on Saturdays. I managed to do it for a bit a while back but fell back into old habits. There always seems to be so much to do – I work on all my projects over the weekend and it feels like I’m constantly pushing away ideas to the next weekend for lack of time. I should know better – when you least feel like you need a break is when you most need one. Knowing to take time off is a big part of being consistently productive.

So, today will be different. I’m going to switch off completely till tomorrow morning. No checking email and definitely no work. Just a movie, perhaps some reading and a lot of being completely present to enjoy time with family and friends.

If your schedule allows it, I hope you try it too.
