Part of balancing your life is having a diversion from time to time. You can't just be pouring all your time and energy on "serious" matters such as work and taking care of your family. No matter how much you love what you do it will also be draining when you do it routinely all the time. So it would also help to take a time off and free your mind from any worries.
It doesn't necessarily mean that you should take a vacation on some island or just take off to some place and leave everything behind. In fact, you don't have to leave your home to refresh and rejuvenate yourself. It need not cost you a single cent but your time.
It's easy. Stop what you're doing for a minute. Get a glass water or juice or whatever your favorite drink is and drink it leisurely while watching TV or reading the paper. Or, just spend a minute or two talking to your husband or your wife about even the most mundane things. Maybe you can take off your hat as a parent and play with your daughter or your son. It could also be fun. If not, pick up the phone and call a friend. It will surely take your mind off from some of those wrinkle causing matters.
There are many ways you can take a break from the rigors of daily life. And the costs can go from zero to so much than you can afford or imagine. Be creative or take it simple. But take a break and you will surely come back refreshed and rejuvenated having more energy to do the things you do, be it as a CEO or VP of your company, managing your own business or just taking care family.
