In this episode I talk about why it's important to take a break sometimes and why you shouldn't get mad at yourself when you do.

Go ahead and grab a Kit Kat because you are now listening to Tiny Leaps Big Chasing. Oh, Today's song is Be Mine by Bozia and I chose it because of its excellent use of samples, pitch changes and a trap

chorus that creates something extremely energetic and just well fun.

Check out the artist and let's get into the show. Even though, even. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah,

uh, uh, Welcome to another episode of Tiny Leaps. Big changes where I share simple strategies you can use to get more out of your life.

My name is Greg Clunice and I'm not very good at giving myself a break.

I've always been that way.

For some reason, I feel like I always

need to be working on something and when I'm not, when I get lazy or have no

project to work on, I start to get anxious and stressed out. But something I've been working on a lot lately is my ability to take breaks, to relax and unwind.

Now of course I don't just mean breaks during the work day. I take plenty of those. I mean the kind of break where you put everything aside, stop checking your email and do something non-work related that you enjoy.

It's really difficult for me, and I tend to get pretty mad at myself when I do so I end up not really enjoying the break at all and just stressing myself out the entire time.

This leaves me exhausted the next time I try to sit down and work and it leads to burnout and frankly it's just not a

healthy way to live. So there are plenty of negatives to the way I live my life and on the other hand there are a

million and one positives to giving yourself the space you need to relax. In this

episode I want to dive into a few of those benefits, how they relate to your ability to succeed and

what you might be doing to sabotage yourself in the long term.
