Do you have trouble shutting down your phone, Blackberry or computer? Turning everything off and calling it a night can really be tough. But, unplugging from work and spending quality time with your family is essential! Still can’t put that iPad away? Check out these five reasons to unplug this summer and hopefully they inspire you to make a change!
Five Reasons to Unplug This Summer
- You need a brain break. Everyone’s mind needs some time off every once in a while. Between the phone calls, emails and messages from work, the web (and your phone) is filled with constant chatter. The constant feed of Twitter and Facebook never shuts down, making your mind work overtime. Give it a rest!
- Work will go on with out you. Your business, company or team will survive a few days without you at their beckon call. Delegate your responsibilities before you unplug and your team will work it out.
- Your family needs you. Spending time with the people you love is the most important thing you can do in this life. So do it! Make memories that you keep to yourselves – leave Facebook and Instagram behind and just be.
- You will be a better employee. Taking some time away to put everything in perspective is a great way to get even better at your job. Refreshing yourself with true relaxation will give you the chance to return to work with fresh eyes!
- Just because. What better reason to unplug this summer than just because. Enjoy the summer! Go to the beach. Watch a sunset. Have a lemonade on the front porch. Do the things that summer is all about.
