Get out of your own way

The other day, I came close to cancelling a planned day out.

I told myself that I was way too busy and had too much on my plate to go out exploring in the countryside, and that it would be just a colossal waste of time.

Luckily, I didn’t listen to myself!

A few hours later, after spending time outdoors seeing new places, I was rejuvenated like never before and my batteries were fully recharged.

A lot of the time we tell ourselves that if we’re not at our desk powering through our to-do list then we’re somehow slacking, when the reality of it is that taking time out is essential. It gets your brain and your body back in the same place and can help you figure things out in a way that you just can’t do if you’re staring at your computer screen getting frustrated.

So next time you’re feeling up against it, or you just can’t solve a particular problem, get out of your own way and get outside!
