As a business builder
and a writer,
I tend to work
all the time.
There are officially
no weekends
or holidays for me.
But I try not to
schedule work
on weekends and holidays.
Why?
Because if I schedule
work
7 days a week
and I fall behind schedule,
I don’t have any time
to catch up
to my schedule.
Every time an emergency
or an unexpected opportunity
happens,
I’d fall more and more
behind on my schedule
until my schedule
is meaningless.
A buffer of 2 days
out of 7
seems huge.
Unfortunately, it isn’t.
And if I DO have
excess time,
I can work on projects
I’m passionate about.
That makes working
on my ‘days off’
emotionally easier.
Try not to schedule
work
on your days off.
Give yourself that buffer.
