Being Kind to Your Later Self: Going on Vacation & Leaving the Office Behind!

I think the busy professional falls into three categories when it comes to vacation:

1. The person who fully enjoys their vacation, doesn't check emails or voice mails (at least not often) but comes back to a barrage of messages and to-dos waiting to be done on top of the current flow of work in progress.
2. The person who takes work with them on vacation and it stresses themselves out and they don't fully relax.
3. The person scared to go on vacation because they feel like their job or their business is going to crumble in the wake of their absence.

Here are some suggestions from SMEAD® Organomic series that helps you balance life and work and enjoy your vacation:
