The best thing you can do this weekend.

No it's not to build a prospect list or try and catch that CEO before he gets on the golf range on Sunday.


It's to turn off slack, close that work computer and not touch it for the weekend.


Burnout in sales is real.


All too often I've found myself answering a slack message and then suddenly doing a cheeky hour of work.


Why is that bad? When I do that I can't switch off and I come crashing back into Monday and Tuesday feel like the weekend didn't exist.


Instead go do some yoga, play a round of golf, give your mom a call or get absolutely fucked up with the boys.


Happy hunting guys and chill the fuck out this weekend.

It's rare for me, I like my steak like I like my SDRs...only slightly warm and full of blood.

This is a fabulous Friday reminder. Yes everyone please. Go enjoy your weekend. Grill out. Spend time doing things you enjoy with the least amount of screen time possible.

Don't forget to hide ALL of your work paraphernalia. It really does help.

Yep, I made this mistake my first year of working left the work laptop and phone out in the open.ย 

No longer, banished to the cupboard they be now.ย

I think @CuriousFoxย said it best: when work is done on Friday everything goes in a drawer and doesn't come out till Monday. I've been doing this since I worked myself into an ulcer a few years ago--can't recommend it enough. Enjoy the weekend @InQ5WeTrustย

Honestly yoga's having a renaissance atm - goat yoga, beer yoga, metal yoga.ย 

Not to mention how much it helps after being in a chair all day.ย 

Get the yoga in prior to a session of beers and burgers. Balance^TM

Considering it's my wife's birthday tomorrow I'm definitely going to turn my shit off. What good is having a job if you're too busy to enjoy the fruits of your labor?

100% man, I've seen reps who are worried about quota start killing themselves on weekends only to tank more, just because they're dead.ย 

Rest is king.

I 100% agree with this and love this.

Once the laptop closes on a Friday, I truly unplug for the weekend and not even think about work til that Monday morning.ย 

Enjoy the weekends, take time for yourself to do what you love and reset.

After about a year of working non-stop in a new role I realized I didn't have to do that, and I could just chill out on the weekend and no one would hold that against me.ย 

Most people aren't monsters. Set your boundaries and make it clear you prioritize your life on the weekend, and most people will respect it. If you can't then I hope you make a shit ton of money.

It feels good to unplug without guilt that you should be working.

100% and as you said if you are at that company where they keep pushing that boundary, time to reconsider that company or chase that money.
