So, I'm out in Salt Lake City with Jerred and Yves, and instead of grinding out work before a finance workshop, we hit the slopes for a "Free Day." It's a concept from Dan Sullivan that Jerred reminded us about, a day where you do absolutely nothing business-related. No emails, no patients, just pure, unadulterated you-time. We all hustle, especially when starting out, but taking these dedicated breaks to recharge your brain is crucial. Trust me, you can't run on 10% battery forever. Giving yourself this downtime actually makes you more efficient.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
- A "Free Day" means zero business activities of no emails, no networking, no patient work. It's for personal recharge.
- Scheduling regular Free Days (even just once a quarter) during the work week can prevent burnout and boost long-term productivity.
- Your brain needs downtime to function optimally; constantly grinding leads to hitting a wall.
🧠 Pro Tip: Don't just wait for the weekend. Intentionally carve out a Free Day during your typical work week. Use that time freedom you've earned to do something fun and let your brain recharge. You'll come back sharper.
