DO you ever take a break from working?

I mean like, some money is flowing in, and you just maintain, barely. Or do you go full force no matter what X number of days a week?

no matter what time of day a week it is. I have many webmasters calling me throughout the day - early morning to late evening asking for help. It simply would be wrong of me to turn them down.

I took probably 8 or 9 months off, started off as a vacation but went longer due to health issues. Money actually kept rolling in so not a big deal but it's finally leveling off and I'm able to work now so I'll get going a bit more.

As an aff, some days I just feel like letting it roll in. But I know I gotta get some work done to get to the next plateau.

breaks are good here and there. I usually do work everyday but once in a while I will take 1 day off and just chill.

7 days a week long long hours. I did promise myself I was going to start doing something fun every day regardless though. I used to go out all the time and still put in 15 hour days 7 days a week when I first got in the biz. Gotta keep from burning out.

I tend to work in spurts - maybe 3-4 days full power, then a day off.

I like to work evenings and the timezone difference works to my advantage. Since most of my clients are US based, my evening is their day

Yes, I take time to rest because too much work with no break from work is also bad for my health.

The Internet never sleeps; and, apparently, neither do we.
