The benefits of holidays
I’ve had a few weeks off, including a week of light duties, then a week at the beach. Even though it’s winter in Australia, the water on North Stradbroke Island where we holidayed was warm enough to swim in. We also managed to see some humpback whales off the coast as they migrate north to the Great Barrier Reef to calve.
It’s hard taking breaks with a young family and work commitments. But they’re absolutely vital to sustain high levels of performance. I was pretty run down. But now I’ve come back refreshed with my motivation much improved.
When I arrived back my copy of Dr Brett Steenbarger’s book The Daily Trading Coach had arrived early from Amazon (it hasn’t hit the book stores in Australia yet as far as I can tell). It was a pleasant surprise and I’ve already studied several chapters, which I’ll write about later.
