Recharging the personal batteries
This week I’m going green – a little R & R to soak up the sun in my personal solar panel – my physical body.
School is out. The weather has been outstanding. Summer officially arrives in about 4 days.
I might make light of taking some time off this week (obviously still working by getting the newsletter done) but way too many business owners are out of touch with taking care of things other than working in their business.
Times are tough right now so long departures from your business may not be available but a few days to recharge your batteries and get you properly focused is critical to coming out of the economic challenge still on your feet.
Now, I know that you will still be thinking about your business (as I do) as that does not necessarily shut off like the flip of a switch. On the other hand a strategically placed separation from the daily fire fighting or margin/profit objectives can add proper perspective and creative juices demanded to be a leader under these conditions.
If you are so tied to your business that you can not take time to take care of yourself – YOU HAVE BIGGER PROBLEMS than you want to admit to yourself.
Taking some time allows for other leaders in development to step up and take responsibility for daily operations. It allows you to evaluate their capabilities in handling the business at hand and moving it forward. It provides critical self analysis time to re-energize the next push forward toward results.
As you read this, take your calendar out and plan your next 1, 2 or multiple day rejuvenation session for yourself.
If you look at your calendar and can’t find a spot, then give us a call (313) 527-7945 to help you put in place the necessary talent to allow you a future escape to recharge your batteries.
