I'm glad Jackie blogged about this... to remind us to take a vacation.   I feel it is something all of us want to do... we just tend to put it on the back burner.

Montauk Point Vacation

If I Do Not Take A Vacation, YOU Will Pay For It!

We went on vacation to Montauk Point, NY this past week and I had no idea how much I needed it.

I realized how much I've been working for the last 11 months and barely taking a day off.

I was feeling pulled from all sides. I'm a Mom, Wife, Daughter, Sister, Aunt and a Realtor® to sellers and buyers.

Even with all the stress I somehow maintained my composure and patience for almost a year.

I mainly neglected myself and took care of everyone else. Don't get me wrong, I love my personal and professional life and wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.

This vacation taught me that life is short and I need to enjoy it more. If I do not, then everyone else will suffer for it including myself.

Even today I went fluke fishing out of Captree in Babylon, NY with my Mom and Son. Everyone on the boat were catching them but all of them were under 21" long so that meant throw them back. I did catch a 4 pound Sea Bass and ended up winning the pool of $84.00!

We all need to take "me" time. If we do not, everyone else will pay for it including ourselves.

I agree with you 100% - we all need to take a break and have some down time.  I sometimes have to force myself to take a break, but once I do, I'm so glad I did.  Thank you for the reminder.  I need a break - I think I'll do this within the next month!

You have to take a vacation and shut off the phone, or eventually you can become burnt out.  Being Burnt-out does not make you the most effective you can be.  Im going to Disney World!!!!!!

I really need to take this advice!  I haven't been on a vacation in too long...either work related or I don't trust many folks with my furbabies!!!
