Quickbits

Time off is a good thing. I generally need to take some time off to realize this. I'm not sure the minimum amount of time needed, perhaps a week or so. Generally after a few days, my enthusiasm to get back to work rises and I'm kind of eager to get back to things. My thinking expands and I start to think about big ideas again. That desire to "take over the world" begins to creep back into my mindset. Whenever I'm off, I begin to think that I need to do this more often. Perhaps when I'm able to, I just take an automatic week off at the end of every quarter. Just some time to step back from everything, reassess my goals, and regain my ambition.

When you have a hard time getting going, just hit some small, easy to accomplish things. Get something off your list, check that checkmark, and see if you can get some momentum going.

I firmly believe that doing just a few things here and there is an effective strategy for getting shit done over the long term.
