New Blog Post Alert! Pull the Plug to Power Up ? Back in 2003, fresh off completing my graduate degree, I treated myself to a long, much-needed vacation. On the flight out, I remember thinking,?“Enjoy this while it lasts, Stephen. The days of long breaks, summers off, and living semester to semester are behind you. You’re about to enter the world of 50-hour workweeks, limited vacation days, and quick, short trips.” ? Now, over 20 years later, I can count on one hand the times I’ve fully disconnected from work for extended periods of time. There was my honeymoon in 2008, a family trip to Iceland in 2018, and a two-week RV adventure in 2020 to visit my in-laws during that first surreal summer of COVID - thanks to my amazing manager, Sonia, who convinced me to take the time off! ? Each of those breaks required intention, planning, saving, and sometimes a little convincing. And yes, they also meant coming back to a mountain of work. But those experiences remain some of my most cherished memories. They were more than just vacations—they were opportunities to gain perspective, reconnect with myself and my loved ones, and recharge my mental health. ? That said, I’ve also come to appreciate the value of shorter, more accessible breaks. Staycations or quick camping trips can be just as powerful in helping me disconnect from the daily grind and refocus on what truly matters, especially when I approach them with intention. ? Click below to read more about the benefits I’ve experienced from taking meaningful time to disconnect, including: - Stress reduction - Gaining perspective - Reconnecting with yourself - Reconnecting with loved ones - Improved leadership (I tried to post it all but I exceeded the character limit by a few characters!) https://lnkd.in/etee_774 #getclear #executivecoaching #recharging
