I think that this is a really common feeling because there always seems to be more work to do, which means that there never seems like a good time to stop and take a break. My first thought is that the work is going to be there when I get back, so I’m not missing out on anything. Secondly, I think about how important it is that we take time away to recharge (workout, sleep, hangout with friends, etc.) in order to “fill our cups.” In doing so, we are better able to show up to our work. When our phone battery gets low, we charge it and/or carry an extra charger. Shouldn’t we do the same or better for ourselves?
