I feel what you’re saying. I find it difficult to take breaks myself, because I don’t want to get bored. I don’t really have a whole lot of obligations to anyone, so I have a lot more time to spend on social media than say a professional in their late 30s with a spouse and two young kids. However, I do find that if I pursue things that spark my interest outside of internet communications, I am able to disengage from it for a short while.

Hey Craig, thanks for commenting. It’s so hard to not feel like you’re missing out on something isn’t it? But you’ve just got to remember that every one else isn’t there (e.g on Twitter) 24 hours a day either. I agree, I think it’s hard for everybody and certainly not just a problem women have.

Louise, I enjoyed this post! I couldn’t agree more. I think taking time away is part of the work, and if you’re not giving yourself some down time, you’re “shirking.”

To be most effective and satisfied with our lives, we need to be clear about what we’re doing. It feels great to take a step back once in a while and put all your goings-on in perspective.

Louise,

Love your blog post, and it came at just the right time when I was thinking what you were thinking. Last week I honestly didn’t have time for social media and started to think I was going to loose everyone, but burning the candle at both ends, I’m just exhausted and needed a break. I was thinking to take a complete week off of everything just to get myself organized and on a schedule so life wouldn’t be so hectic. So thanks for “it’s ok” and a “good thing” reminder to take a break and relax…your body will thank you.
With gratitude!
~Pam

You’re right Miji, it is a difficult thing to do and it’s not good for our body’s or our mind’s to keep going when we’re desperate for a break. Keep making the effort and I will too! Thanks so much for commenting

Louise!

This an excellent post on a raherly unspoken of truth! I too work too long and often times dont take a break until my body makes me!

I have begun to set hours of working. When the office its closed I try my hardest not to work. It is a very difficult thing to do, especially as an entrepreneur. But, I am making the effort!
