Midweek Mindset: Go dark
Can you go on vacation?
Midweek Mindset
I’m getting ready to go on vacation.
And every time I do, the same question hits me:
Does any of this really matter for a week?
Not in a careless way.
In an honest way.
If I step away for a few days, will everything fall apart?
The answer — if you’ve built well — is no.
Do I trust our people?
We do.
Which means the real work isn’t finishing everything.
It’s letting go of the illusion that I have to.
I’d love to say I’m going dark the entire week.
I won’t.
I’ll check in a few days. That’s just real life.
But I do plan on hiding my phone in a drawer for stretches of time.
Not because I don’t care. (and its okay to not care once and while)
Because I care about the right things.
Midweek reminder:
If you can’t step away for a few days, you’re probably holding too much.
And if you can — even a little — that’s a sign you’ve built something solid.
