I’ve been doing an informal survey these past few weeks, asking people if they do work on the weekends to catch up or even think about work issues on their days off.  Over 90% of them admitted that they do.  So it seems on our time off, even if we are not actually doing work, we are thinking about it.  Instead of being in the moment with our kids and partners or when we are hanging with friends or just relaxing, most of us are mulling over something work-related.   Have we all gone crazy?

My Friday dare to you is simply this:   You would never consider running your car without gas.  So this weekend, honour yourself and refuel your engine by NOT thinking about work, NOT doing any work and certainly NOT thinking - “I really should do a little work.”   Just relax, enjoy life and have some fun.  If works pops into your mind, just swat it away like a fly.

I’m betting you’ll find you are more productive on Monday.    Enjoy the weekend!
