Need a Vacation?
Brad Feld has a great recap of the ways he takes time off to recharge, including a quarterly, week-long vacation and semi-regular weekend getaway:
Go Dark Weekend: When I find myself feeling burned out, Ido a go dark weekend. I turn off my computer and cell phone at 6pm onFriday night and don't turn it back on until 5am Monday morning. Icancel anything that is scheduled for the weekend and just do whateverI feel like doing. This is usually a once a quarter event;occasionally more frequently depending on how busy I am. I'mconsidering doing this around each of my marathon weekends also.
Anyone reading this feeling burned out? How about "going dark" this weekend and reconnecting with your kids?
