Weekend Wisdom: Why Rest is a Business Strategy
"Because burnout doesn't build businesses- balance does"
Let’s get one thing straight: taking a break isn’t lazy — it’s smart.
In fact, I’d argue that rest is one of the most underrated business tools out there.
As a bookkeeper, I’ve seen what happens when small business owners run themselves into the ground — the numbers don’t lie. Receipts pile up. Transactions go uncategorized. And the stress? It shows up in the books and in your body.
So, this weekend, here’s your permission slip to pause.
👉 Go for a walk.
👉 Hug your kids.
👉 Leave your laptop closed.
👉 Let your nervous system reboot.
Because when Monday rolls around, you’ll make better decisions — not just for your business, but for yourself.
Your balance sheet matters, but so does your personal balance.
So, breathe, stretch, nap, or do absolutely nothing for a bit.
Trust me — your future self (and your bookkeeper) will thank you.
Even a picnic with wine and fresh bread counts as strategic planning — if it helps you recharge.
