A seller’s emotions can shift with the wind. Stuff comes at you from all directions during the workweek; much of it can be filed in the "hard" column.
Sure, you thrive on the action and the wins, but a rock fight is still a rock fight.
For some, solace is found at a bar on Friday night, for others, it’s the gym. And some merely want to curl up with their favorite pet and watch a vid.
Bottom line: weekends are meant for self-care. Whether you define self-care by just sleeping and breathing – or yoga, biking, or hiking – make yourself number one this weekend.
Do
You know that getting what you want is only a decision away. (Plus a little execution, of course.)
If you want a robust pipeline, schedule more prospecting time. To nail your quarterly goals, set milestones and hold yourself accountable for your performance.
It’s the same with mindfulness.
If you want to run far away from your work and use the weekend to escape mentally, you must do the things that bring you joy and release.
Commit to mindfulness this weekend. Schedule the activities that bring you peace of mind and joy.

There are many ways to play your weekends…sometimes you may wanna stuff it with tons of fun activities, and other times, you may wanna sit in a corner and stare at walls.
It’s the same with techniques to help you chill. Not everything has to be a sit on the mat meditation. For example, this ancient Japanese self-relaxation technique is different and valuable.
The best part is it can be done just about anywhere and at any time…even on those weekend days when you’re running around faster than during the week!
