We need to have boundaries...

When I was running my business full time, I didn't work Mondays. That was the rule. Not "I try not to work Mondays." I didn't work Mondays. Period.

That one decision changed everything. I had a day to handle the house, run errands, be a human being. My week started on Tuesday and I was sharper because of it.

But here's the thing. Setting the boundary was the easy part. Holding it was the real test. Because the phone still rings on Monday. The texts still come in. And every single one of them feels urgent.

So I have a question for you. Be honest.

When was the last time you had a day off and didn't check your work phone? Not even once.

No judgment. I already know what most of you are going to pick. I just want you to see it in writing.

Less than a week ago

Less than a month ago

Less than three months ago

I honestly can't remember
