I’ve been working this week but completely differently to the week before.

In the previous week I had some 40+ calls and meetings, numerous recordings and edits for podcasts, a ton of writing and creative activity which led to a few 12+ hour days.

All this work led to me sleeping over 24 hours over Friday and Saturday nights. Hurrah for sleep but not so great for spending time with my family.

So I cut lots of activities this week and made it about clearing up, fewer meetings, getting out and about, personal fitness and working on the business, not for the business.

Being unafraid to take time out is essential for people managing a business.

Make sure to take time out if you need it.
