Since I normally do the planning for next week on the previous weekend, I felt already an impact this Saturday and Sunday.

It felt much easier to be “in the moment” just enjoying the Sun or having conversations with family.

there was no pressure to think about stuff I normally focus on:

• Is my agenda fully optimized next week in Outlook?
• Did I forget to “push” someone or some process that is lagging behind?
• Am I forgetting any important deadline?
• Is my task management software updated and my time tracked?
• Have I prepared all the subjects I need to manage and present in the meeting?

Probably some of those feelings will be replaced by others concerning the Leave optimization as the week goes by… but I hope with less intensity.

Positive: at least this weekend, it felt good to be freer!
