6) Tie in your time off with the rest of the family. Don’t be the parent/partner who’s always working.

2) It’s hard to take holidays when you don’t get paid for them but that’s all part of the freelancing life.

7) If you have to do any kind of work for your freelance business, keep it light. Admin work, review your website. That sort of thing.

3) If you are freelancing I recommend taking regular breaks from work. Look at it as an investment.

1) For the first time in a long time I feel completely rested. I think it’s been nearly a year since I felt like this.

8) Finally, schedule your next time off when you go back to work. Something to look forward to when you’re working again.

4) Don’t go anymore than three months without taking at least a week off.
