So many of us get into a routine — go to work, go to school, come home, eat, sleep, watch some TV…
What’s missing though?
Everyone needs some down time — a chance to read something that has nothing to do work (I prefer fiction myself), a chance to feel better with a workout, a bike ride, or even just a walk outside, a chance to sit around on your porch and drink lemonade, and talk to your wife or your boyfriend or your kids.
So what will you do for yourself today? Do you schedule time for you to explore on your own? Do you do things just for the fun of it?
My personal favorites include writing, reading a good novel, cooking a new recipe, and going for a walk. What are yours?

It is so Hard for entrepreneurs to take some down time (at least it is for me). Since I usually don’t take any hardcore downtime until I’ve completed a project or made a ridiculous amount of money, I try to incorporate something I like to do in my everyday routine. I’m a big fitness fan so today its swimming, then a little playwriting.
You know what they say about all work and no play ;-).

Thanks for the comment Mark. I’m the same way, except I noticed I get much more done when I take a break for myself.
Swimming sounds good today. I might have to jump in the pool 🙂
