Working for yourself, at least for me, means cutting back on holidays!
When I was employed I had to take 4 weeks plus public holidays off per year and we often had two holidays, a week in the sun and a week at home catching up on decorating or some other chore. The other days were added to weekends or used as bridging days to get as many long weekends in as possible.
Having been self employed for 11 years now those days seem long gone, but it is important to try and get away and to forget about work (OK, maybe to take some with you, but to at least get away from the office). Our last holiday was over three years ago - a proper holiday being defined as anything longer than a week - but at the end of next week we are off on holiday, we are heading off to an airport and flying off for a seven day sunshine holiday!
Woohoo!
It'll be 2016 before the next one, so I am going to make the most of it!
