How To Balance Work, Life and Vacation

"Use the space and time to reflect on the year so far and plan how to improve in the coming months. But just as importantly, let your hair down.”






Good Morning Folks,

The unusually busy airport yesterday reminded me that lots of people are starting their summer vacation season. So our Thursday LinkUP today will help you find how to strike a balance among work, life and vacation. 

If you are fortunate enough to get a holiday, put business out of your mind – but not out of your heart. Don’t check your smartphone every few minutes, no matter how much your natural reflexes will want you to. But don’t totally ignore it either.

Because a vacation is also a time when unexpected inspiration may strike. Or when the unemployed will be focused more on searching for a job than searching for a beach.

As Richard Branson notes in his piece linked below, “with the pace of life slowing up slightly for many people when the sun comes out, you have more time to allow ideas to take shape in your mind. Use the space and time to reflect on the year so far and plan how to improve in the coming months. But just as importantly, let your hair down.”
Your LinkUp follows.
