It might be a vacation to a far-off land or a staycation that involves a social media detox and midday naps for no reason at all. Regardless, it can be difficult to unplug and trust that the progress you\u2019ve made in your career will still be right where you left it when you’re ready to return.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Feeling<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

When growing a following feels like it needs constant attention and clients don’t book themselves and newsletters need to stay consistent and the writing deadlines are looming\u2026 you’re lucky if you can turn away for a few hours without feeling like you\u2019re falling behind.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A vacation is about completely breaking from your normal day-to-day and tuning out your normal responsibilities so your mind, body and soul can recharge and gain perspective. If you never completely step back from your work you’ll be too attached to it to know when it needs fixing.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The Truth<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

As much as I am my brand, I’m the face of my company, the career I’m building isn’t about me, it’s about serving my community. Serving that community is bigger than just me and should be able to function with or without me.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

By building a career with the mindset that your business lives and dies by your ability to be present or on call at all times will not only set you up for failure and burnout, but also limit the overall scope of success that your business\/career is capable of reaching.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

How do you begin to build a system that works for you?<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I always like to start with a checklist – a run down of everything that should be done in preparation for a trip or staycation. Once you have your checklist you’ll need to decide how you will execute it and how everything on that list will fit into your current situation.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Time management<\/a> isn\u2019t about always sticking to a plan. It\u2019s about knowing what deserves your focus at any given time so you can take action on what matters and not waste time on what doesn\u2019t serve your goals.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Being an entrepreneur is messy. I like to think of it like triage at a hospital with the benefit of not actually being a matter of life or death. Last minute things will pop up, things will take longer than they should, other things will get cancelled or rescheduled, and other factors that are beyond your control will mess with your plan.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

How to Create a Life-Giving Calendar<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Step One:<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

First, check the calendar for all upcoming deadlines in the next two weeks. Which are hard deadlines and which are self-inflicted? Which ones, if any need to be rescheduled or delegated?<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Step Two:<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Then go through your list and make note of what absolutely has to get done before V-Day. Make note of bills that are due, subscriptions that you might want to pause, and content you may want to batch and schedule ahead of time.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Step Three:<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Take the top priority\/time-sensitive projects and break them down into microtasks. Once you\u2019re able to see that a bunch of graphics are needed for multiple projects or multiple people needed follow ups via email or numerous spreadsheets needed to be updated you have a clearer picture of how much time it will take.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Step Four:<\/h4>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Next, after breaking things down, schedule in blocks of time into your last week before going away to batch and tackle many of these tasks. Emails may be a block of time, knock out the graphics in one sitting, newsletter content can be its own block, etc.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Establish Expectations<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

In addition, reach out to high-priority contacts a week before you leave to let them know your plans. It allows for a much smoother transition as it manages people\u2019s expectations and it helps avoid unforeseen pop-up projects.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

\r\n

PRO TIP<\/h4>\r\n

Subtitle for this block<\/p>\r\n

Add your upcoming travel dates to your email signature in your CRM like HoneyBook. Don’t have a custom email signature? Gotcha covered.<\/p>\r\n

Get your Email Signature<\/span><\/a><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

It\u2019s also important to take some time and schedule a few posts to go out while you\u2019re away. It\u2019s a HUGE relief to know that content is getting out there on a consistent basis and you don\u2019t have to think about what\u2019s going on in cyberland.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

What NOT To Do<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Don\u2019t schedule a launch while you\u2019re away. If the trip or detox was a last minute decision, MOVE YOUR DATES. Do NOT ever, ever, ever schedule the launch of a release or website or product or service while you\u2019re away. Go away AFTER the launch or a bit beforehand, like a babymoon, but never during.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Don\u2019t assume you\u2019ll get it all done to and from your destination. On a normal day being on a train or bus can be a great time to knock out a few small yet important tasks. However, stress and emotions can run high when traveling for a vacation in a much different way.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Don\u2019t schedule anything for work the day before you leave for a vacation because it will inevitably get eaten up with last minute personal errands.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Be more conservative with how much time you have left. Reschedule and delegate some of those other projects you were planning on finishing if they\u2019re not super urgent.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Lastly on my list when preparing for a trip {besides, obviously packing and running personal errands}, is to create a value-packed<\/strong> auto-reply message for emails and make sure you add an extra day to your trip.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This is a great way to keep your business going while you hit pause. In the email, I direct them to check out a recent piece of content and\/or to schedule a call with me for when I\u2019m back.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Many people contact me with similar concerns, so by including a link to something that might be able to answer their question while I\u2019m gone is valuable. It also allows me to feel that my community is being served even when I\u2019m not checking email 3 times a day.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If you\u2019d like the full checklist I just went through, a copy of my ever-popular Packing Checklist {which you can usually only access by purchasing the 2019 Rock\/Star Life Planner} AND a copy of my recent auto-reply click here to download it!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Remember: unplugging is crucial for the success of your business. With the proper preparations, you don\u2019t have to shut down the business just to shut off for a few days.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
