Take A Rest - It'll Do You Good

My friend and leader of MyInternetBusiness, my number one business source and home based business opportunity, was the springboard for me to discuss briefly one way of "keeping you going at reaching your goals". I am fortunate indeed to be part of an organization that cares and supports it's members. Here is my take as taught by our leader in MyInternetBusiness.

And it is, to refresh. We can get so caught up in and focused on whatever it is we do in life that we loose whatever edge it is that we've accomplished by being so focused. I mean, it's terrific if you are writing your goals down and then insuring that you accomplish them and making them a habit. But with that focus you often spend so much time performing the duties necessary to reach your goals that you tire and loose perspective. Don't get me wrong, I am not suggesting that you change your focus.

What I am suggesting is to turn around and "smell the roses". Take a rest, even if it is a little rest, to think and experience something else. This would be like taking a break as you do at work, or to take a vacation like you can in some employment. Or you can look at it like simply doing something different for a while, like a break. Learn something new and totally unrelated. Take a different route to the one you usually drive. If you know how to do a sport but haven't done it for a while, then do it.

The mind has a way of re-freshing itself with new perspective to our major goals when it is taken away from it for a bit. You may not want to get away from it for a bit but the healthy thing to do is to do it anyway because you will absolutely find a new perspective a re-freshed energy to your major tasks.

Those who are so focused that they say that time is money and they really can't take a minutes break or to follow the suggested refreshening exercise, should understand that in reality they will be more productive if they were to take the advice and refresh.
