Working time and time for a rest make a good couple.

Unsurpassed goals.

Please do not forget about something very important – a rest –  a short text about the importance of a rest, of taking a break from work. Increase your effectivity, increase the amount of your tasks, increase the amount of working hours, achieve more. We either place such goals on our high priority list or these are set by our boss.

Searching for a way to greater efficiency.

More tasks, more intense professional activity, more tasks done. – Nothing could be more wrong! The more time you spend at work, the less tasks you will get done or at least after some time you will do these much less efficiently needing more and more time for a single task. Are you searching for a way to more productivity, getting more done but working less? Rest more!

People spend more and more time at work.

Even if you leave the office or a company, your thoughts still concentrate on the tasks that have to be done, the situations that you had at work, the plans for the next working day. These topics are so much rotating in your thoughts that very often in the evenings you tend to check and answer your mails, speed up the ASAP tasks.. These thoughts and this activity does not let you rest. You are doing a second shift after the supper. You forget about a very important and crucial fact – the role of taking a real not a fake rest. You do not take care about yourself as much as you take care about your tasks, your job, your work, your company, your customers, your boss. Remember that your are , your body is your most important tool.

YOU MAY EASILY FORGET ABOUT THE  FACT THAT YOUR BASIC WORKING TOOL – IS YOU – YOU ALSO NEED TO RECHARGE, TO TAKE A REST!

The role of a break to rest.

You need a break, you need free time.Steven Covey, a bestseller author “The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People” calls this as sharpening your saw. This is the key habit to stay effective. How could you cut down more and more trees when your saw becomes unsharp as you do not take time to sharp it again. This works also for you – working every day around the clock and not taking a rest, does influence your efficiency and potential in a negative way. In order to recover your resources, you need a rest.

DO NOT FORGET ABOUT YOURSELF!

Even if you take a break or go for holiday there is one trap waiting for you. We encourage that you recognize it and answer following questions.

Your needs and demands for a break.

• Do you already know what is the most efficient way for you to rest?
• What do you like to do in your free time?
• Which activities do you like?
