Do you take vacation?

It's vacation time!! Right?

Have you taken vacation this summer?

I tried. I just came back from a week in Italy.

Ok, I did enjoy the time away, with family dispite the corona threat. The problem was that I had difficulties to relax from "my business". I wanted to check email all the time, do training, learn even more about the subject Online Marketing. I found that my mind was always on what my next step could be.

Am I the only one feeling this way? Do you as an Online Marketer feel you can't take vacation/or be offline for a few days, affraid of missing something?
I have been all over the place for a while, but finally getting my sh_t together with a type of "plan of approach"

Is this a newbie problem (I am a newbie), or is it a personality type of probelm?

Does the more experienced marketers have a more relaxed attitude and have no problem to "stay away" for a week or so?

I do understand that you need to put in the time at the beginning of your journey, and I really enjoy doing it and learning new things all the time.

But I am also looking forward to those days when I have set my routine, can work less than the standard 8 hours (I have soooo many other interests that I want to find some time for..) and feel totally relaxed about what I am doing or need to do.

If you have suffered the same problem, will it pass? Do you have any tips or tricks to share? If so, I am all ears :)
