I ended up taking some days off last week. The main reason was I was feeling that I was in “the advanced stages of burnout” as I like to call it. When you’ve been working ceaselessly on your computer, there comes a time when you must abandon your terminal, at least for a few days. If you don’t, you’ll end up continuing on despite running out of things to say.

If you take a quick break, you’ll end up back on the job in a much better mindset than before. At least that’s the basic idea. I know today I’m feeling pretty chipper, since I haven’t blogged since last Wednesday.

How long you take off is up to you, of course. But it better an amount of time that’s sufficient to rest and come up with some new material. Otherwise, you’ll continue on in the same mode as you did before.

Ahh, isn’t that better already?
