Rest

Do you work 24 hours a day, seven days a week? Is anxiety driving you? Who is the boss here?

Without down time burn-out comes. Downtime allows for the batteries to re-charge, perspective to be gotten and freshness of your vision to be maintained.

Yesterday I went with my son to the pool and we took his boys. As they were about to get into the pool my son had a call that was obviously distressing and difficult, it was work related. We all saw it and it changed the atmosphere.

My eldest grandson said 'nany when is daddy getting into the pool?' He wanted to spend downtime with his dad but was being robbed by some caller.

No one is so important that they can be a robber of our rest and peace. That sounds like stuff an enemy would do and it is right. We need to establish boundaries around our world, protect that which is most important, our family and friends from the robber and most importantly protect our own time and rest.
