When you really start relaxing, it is over again. One major prerequisite for balance is planning. What I changed in the last two years is that I do involve customers in my planning. They know when I will be on vacation and so do I also write into my calendar when they are in vacation. And according to this we plan our activities (for the time when I returned). This reduces also the stress when returning. Although I also like short vacations a lot the problem with shorter vacation is that you don’t really get the work out of your head.
