Anyone who doesn't know how to get time in to free their mind just for a little while has a few things to learn. I hike in the Catskills to "get my mind right"! I concur.

My office is only a few feet away. But I had to learn to leave at least Sundays strictly for myself and family. It's all about managing ones time, setting priorities and creating a balance (every day) in life. Else suffer major burn out.
