Taking a week off

Do I really have to rest for a week every month? I have problems just taking a whole day off and doing nothing.

Me, too.

You don’t want to day time off on purpose because you never know when you’ll be forced to layoff — injury, illness, circumstances.

Plus there’s the sanity factor.

Take a long four-day weekend and hit the rest of the week with mild aerobics, and enjoy the gym with an attitude of play, trial and discovery for an hour one or two of the days.

What can you lose… lots to gain…

Carry on… God’s strength… Dave
