Reasons Every Entrepreneur Needs to Take Vacation Time
1. The brain needs extended downtime.
Entrepreneurs are the ones working long and hard, operating on overdrive to develop winning strategy, ensure flawless execution, refine communication and create endless groundbreaking tactics. Thus, some entrepreneurs run the risk of burnout.
To run effectively on all cylinders, the brain needs sufficient downtime.
According to Scientific American, “downtime replenishes the brain’s stores of attention and motivation, encourages productivity and creativity, and is essential to both achieve our highest levels of performance and simply form stable memories in everyday life.”
Taking time off for mindfulness is possibly the greatest gift entrepreneurs can give themselves and their businesses. Researchers have just started exploring the connection between meditation and better physical and psychological health.
A vacation can help entrepreneurs rest their mind to be better able to address and resolve what’s waiting for you back in the office.
