(Comic) It’s a Work-ation Vacation

 “It’s not a good thing when vacation is even more mentally and financially more stressful than your day-today life.”

Start the vacation countdown. In a corporate job, vacation days are literally vacation days – you get to unplug from the demands and stresses of a job (you might even find a way to make your company cell phone ‘disappear’).

And don’t worry: your job will still be there when you get back. You’ll be all relaxed, refreshed, and maybe showing off your suntan to your co-workers. What’s the best part? You get paid to take your vacation!

 

 

If you have the time to take a holiday from your startup, on the other hand, be careful about leaving all the work behind.  Unless you have automated streams of income that don’t require you to be on call, you may come back to a closed shop. Remember though, even though you don’t want to get stuck in this #entrepreneurfail, some rest and relaxation is necessary to run your business, but in small doses.

 

Key Startup Lesson: Vacation comes at a price, but remember, a work-life balance is essential to sanity.
