Longer Vacations And Mini-Retirement - Make The Most Of Your Time

Develpreneur: Become a Better Developer and Entrepreneur

We can leverage some times of the year to create longer vacations and mini-retirement experiences. There are fixed holidays and slow times that can provide a foundation for our time off, and then we tack on a day here and a day there. Likewise, we can work partial days and get things done. That can free up our days to get more things done we enjoy.

You Have Earned Longer Vacations And Mini-Retirement Stretches

Your side hustles and long days should be for more than just getting the job done. There must be a "why" that you look forward to. Some of that may be free time. Some may be time with family. Whatever your reason for working, it helps to take some time for yourself along the way. Embrace even the little periods off to walk away and recharge. You will thank yourself for it.

Embrace The Holidays

You can use the slower time of the year to catch up and prepare to launch into the next year. On the other hand, you can use this time to rest and reflect. In either case, we want to wish you and yours Happy Holidays from all of us at Develpreneur and Building Better Developers.
