How do you know when it’s time to unplug? What do you do to make it happen?
I start to lose my patience outwardly. If it gets to that point, i’m about two days from crash and burn if current stress levels continue.
The protocol:
1 – step away from the desk
2 – leave phone at desk
3 – sit outside in the sun if possible, quiet indoors if not
4 – breathe
Repeat as often as necessary. Follow with extended time away from desk with book, audio book, or writing, Loud music may be appropriate. a good night’s sleep is a must.
