Hiatuses

Coffee Cup Hiatus

Hiatuses can be healthy.

When you step back from a project for awhile, you give yourself the opportunity to gain fresh perspectives that can make the work stronger.

If it’s work worth doing, you’ll also be missed. Your readers or family or colleagues or friends will be happy when you return. You’ll sense it and be fueled by it.

The work you’re doing is stressful and exhausting, I’m sure. A hiatus is a great way to let your body and mind recover and re-energize.

But, ultimately, what makes any hiatus worth it (or not worth it) is whether or not you make the commitment of returning to your work with more gusto than you left with.

There has to be that commitment pre-hiatus. The if, then statement must be bought into if the hiatus is going to be effective.

Stay Positive & Otherwise It’s Just A … Hide-Atus
