Working on a Saturday AGAIN?

    Anyone else feel like their work week never ends?

    It's so weird, ever since I became self employed I basically start work the moment I wake up and don't stop thinking about it, in one form or another, until the end of my day. At least when I worked 9 to 5 I could leave it at the office! Of course, I'm making boatloads more money now, but still. Why am I not outside in the sunshine, why am I in a coffee shop checking forums instead?

    It doesn't hurt to take a break. Don't even think about computers for a while :D

    I'm kind of the opposite, actually. Sometimes I find myself playing too much and not studying/working enough, hehe.

    Sounds like you need a vacation in Greece.

    By the way, that is me thinking about work all day too. My last job was to write 19 articles on different islands of Greece.

    I plan on quitting my physical job soon :)

    Back when I worked all the time at my phsyical job, my life was miserable. I suggest you either ask off or tell your clients to expect a day or two each week where no work will be done- depending on your situation.

    Good luck :) get some rest.

    I think you should set your own time when to take breaks. If its break time drop whatever you are doing and go outside and enjoy the sunshine.

    Admit it, you are a workaholic :D
    I think you love doing your "work" so much and it has become part (or should I say whole) of your daily life. :)

    just emply someone, trust me the stress ur building up is not good i know, pay someone 2 do some some of you work on certain days that way you will have more free time, also you might find its also more profitable. what is it that you are self employed in?

    Well, if you like what you're doing, it shouldn't matter if you work on a Sat or Sun.

    Why aren't you out in the sunshine, only you can answer that question. Get off your comp & step outside :D
