I just got back from Florida yesterday evening. It’s amazing how a few days away can really help clear your head. For me, it’s really hard to turn off work. Since, I am self-employed, I can sometimes obsess and easily put 10-12 hours in each day. Even on vacation, a few times my sister had to remind me to “turn it off”. I did fit in reading a great marketing book, but otherwise, I said NO to the laptop- no to an internet connection, and no to work in general. No brainstorming, nothing…
What I got in return is a clear, blank mind. Wow, I’m not overwhelmed with what needs to be done, and honestly…it’s a reality check to realize that 3 or 4 days will not make or break me. In fact, it was a nice surprise to see my sites were making money while I was kicked back at the pool bar with my feet up. Gotta love that passive income baby!
Either way, I’m recharged and ready to go. I’m looking forward to starting fresh today, rather than starting my day with a list of I should do this or that, and I need to do this….I’ll make a list of priorities for the week- and there’s no rush. I learned this week, there’s no rush! I also learned I have a lot of fun in Florida, ha…okay, I all ready knew that.
Lots of sunshine, lots of laughter, mix in some shopping, some heart to heart talking, some more sunshine, some more shopping, and well….you get the picture. While the dreary weather met me in New Jersey…Monday I spent about 12 hours from 10 to 10 outside under palm trees at a par and then moved to the pool bar….man, it just has me itching for spring here. So, this Jersey girl is rested and relaxed and ready to head back to work. Signing off on this NJ blog for now….be back soon.
