๐ Have you promised yourself that this year, you will immerse yourself in vacation and not get distracted by personal and business demands?
If so, it’s worth considering some techniques to ensure that happens.
๐ซ Set Boundaries:
๐ Discuss with your team what constitutes an emergency.
๐ If an urgent situation arises, establish a code, such as a thumbs-up or down emoji, to convey your decision so you don’t get sucked in.
๐ Commit to limited times when you’ll check in with work.
๐ Disconnect:
๐ Turn your phone off or leave it behind when possible.
๐ Leave work devices at home.
๐ Take a social media break.
๐ Make plans:
๐ What immersive activities do you want to do on vacation? Research vendors and venues in advance.
๐ Where will you dine, or what will you cook?
๐ Make a tentative plan that gives you a framework for the week so you don’t default to your everyday habits.
๐ Would you be willing to share your biggest challenge when it comes to unplugging from your #business?
