YOU NEED TO TAKE A BRAIN HOLIDAY! We think we NEED to be switched on constantly, otherwise our business will fail. And yet, and yet: If you want to be BRILLIANT in business, you need regular brain holidays! The switch off + power down needs to happen. The brain + soul need space + time to dream. Your business needs space from you in order to grow. You need some goddamn perspective, and it’s not going to come when you are constantly fixated and IN your business, fiddling + fluffing around. HOW TO MAKE SWITCH OFF HAPPEN + BE GLORIOUSLY HAPPY 1. Set boundaries 2. Have dedicated weekly time where you are 100% disengaged from business. At the very least one full day a week. 3. Get a life/hobbies/other things in your world that light you up aside from your biz. Dedicate time to them. 4. Actually make sure you take holidays every year. I think we entrepreneurs are the worst at doing holidays – we always feel like we should be ON and feel guilty when we are not. But holidays bring in so much new energy, inspiration and ideas into your business. They are worth their weight in gold! Do you take brain holidays often? Where are you at on the brain holiday front?
