Summer is now in full swing. We can even feel it in London! Have you started making your plans for your time off?
A lot of people, especially those starting up, feel obliged to keep on working without taking any time off. Some people even admire those that work endless days, weekends and months, not taking any break apart from the necessary. For us to work at our best though, we need a lot of breaks.
Taking some time off during this summer to unplug and recharge, can be a lot more rewarding than working an additional 7 days on your project. Plan to go somewhere where you can stop thinking about work and enjoy life. If you can't afford a vacation, do a stay-cation but make sure that you don't end up spending most of the day reading emails and browsing the web. Spend it doing things you love and with your loved ones.
Do yourself a favour and take this vacation, you deserve it. You'll come back full of energy and with amazing ideas and we'll be waiting to hear them.
