Job stress got you down? Take a vacation every day!

Does your job feel like this?

Is the stress from your job overwhelming? Do you live for Friday night, and dread Sunday night? Is the weekend too short- after all it is only 2 days.... and then you have to work 5 in a row?!

The reason your job is so draining is that you don’t take enough time to recharge your batteries!

Instead of working 5 days and then taking 2 off…. How about you Work 1 day and take 2 off!

Monday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Saturday, Sunday...!

One day of work and 2 days to recharge your batteries... wouldn't that be better?

And how many vacation days do you get? Not enough, obviously!

Do you want more?

The problem is that your employer could not afford a one day work week and more vacation.

So what can you do?

The problem with stress is that it builds up if you don't find a way to release it regularly. 5 straight days of stress can make you crazy! So you need to let the stress go more often.

How about I GIVE you 9 WEEKS OF VACATION!

Here's what I do... I take a vacation EVERY SINGLE DAY!

Here is my secret:

Take one hour a day - and during this time you do the following:

* Decide what you are THANKFUL for - and say it! (I'm so thankful that I have a family I love!..)

* Do something fun! Get some Exercise, paint a picture, read a good book, learn something, LAUGH, listen to something inspiring!

* Plan your day- what can you do TODAY that would be MOST beneficial?

(80% of your problems are caused by 20% of the issues- focus on the big things!)

When I first started doing this, I thought "Take an entire hour out of my daily schedule! That is crazy! I will never get anything done!" Well guess what? I was wrong! After my hour of vacation, I felt better. At the end of the day I realized that I was far more productive (in less time) than before! Instead of rushing around all stressed out trying to get everything done, I was calm and focused. I knew what needed to be done, and I did the important things first.

But be careful with this! You will probably run into this little problem.

You will start to feel guilty. Even though you are far more productive and happy while you are doing your daily vacation, you might start to feel guilty that you are taking the time "for you". This is NOT being selfish! Taking time to be thankful and plan your day while recharging your batteries is not just for you. Everyone around you benefits from your personal improvement. When you feel better, you treat others better. So if you start to feel guilty, ask yourself how much better your life is now - as opposed to the out of control frantic stress you felt before the daily vacations! Don't give up the time you need to make your life better! As the Energizer Bunny says "Keep going"!

1 hour a day for 360 days = 9, 40 hour weeks of vacation!

This is YOUR TIME!

You will be happier, healthier, and more productive because of it!

So CHOOSE A LIFE NOW!
