If you have a huge project due at the end of the summer, for your sanity and the sake of your work, avoid scheduling a vacation at that time. The more room you leave between the project and your vacation, the better off you’ll be. You don’t want to be stressed out if the project gets delayed or it requires more work than you anticipated
4. Be disciplined
If you have a job where you either absolutely must work or at least check in with your employer, designate a brief period of time for these tasks. Your friends or family vacationing with you don’t want to share their relaxing trip with your laptop and cell phone, so keep the work to a minimum.
5. Be a role model
If you’re the boss, set an example for your team by going on vacations and leaving work behind. If others see you able to separate work from your personal life, they’ll have a better attitude and be able to follow your lead.
Keep in mind that a working vacation may have professional consequences in addition to forcing you to make personal compromises. People are often unfocused, rushed, and make errors when working during personal time. Also, accessing company information on an unprotected network outside of the office can compromise your business’
cyber security .
