Starting today I will be away for a week recharging my batteries in the Mexican Sun. I’ve been looking forward to the trip for a few months now. For the first time in a very long time I am going to go completely unplugged for a week. I have the feeling it will take a day or two but once I get on a schedule of not having a schedule, I feel moments of bliss coming. And yes, I think I will have some adverse reaction to not being connected to email, social media outlets, my phone….however, I think a Pina Colada may be just the remedy.

In all seriousness, workers today, whether entrepreneurs or not, get so caught up with life’s everyday chores that we forget to take a break. We all may understand the need for it but we don’t do it as often as would be good for us for many different reasons.

Some of my greatest creative moments were not sitting in front of my computer but instead sitting on a pool chair somewhere.

Whether it be for a few hours, a day or a week, please remember that you need to take care of you, so you can take care of your business. A quick break is better than no break.

So, I won’t be around for the next week or so and it will be quiet here. I promise that as I sit by the pool and soak up some Vitamin D I will be pondering what will come next to share. Part of my vacation goal is to also bask in creativity.

I plan to recharge my personal batteries so that I can come back and kick up my coaching into high gear. I’ve been playing it pretty mellow lately letting everyone get a feel for who I am and my style. I’ve had some things percolating in the back of my head that I’ll want to share with you on topics that will help you develop and hopefully grow your business. I need a little break first because I know once I come back it will be nonstop for a while.

Make it a great week!
