Ever wonder what workaholics like Oprah do on the weekend? Do they take a break? Last time we checked, it was still only people, so the answer is yes. Everyone should be able to cut through work. But what the hell are they doing not to be affected by the Monday blues and similar annoyances that accumulate on our souls like dust. To begin with, they cut the umbilical cord of the work week on Friday.
Before we go into habits successful people, let's clarify what we mean by the term success. Success has a very wide range, so we wouldn't go into it specifically, but if we have to define it parameters of success, it is listed either on the emotional or currency 'stock market', and it depends on the individual where he invests his 'shares'. It is often a mixture of both, and in this article we will take a look at how business success is forged and how we create our own Saturdays and Sundays they survive business successful people. It goes without saying that business success often spills over into other spheres of life and is not a loner in the middle of the desert but a tree in the middle of a tropical thicket.

Usually little things decide and even in the case of success, the details often decide. The ones that we may have even thought of as brakes, but are actually just mini-stops to finish off fuel and grease the wheels again. That's why some of the business success weekend approaches may surprise you. But they are proven to work. And how exactly do they go about it?
They turn off
Mentally also digital, even if only for a few hours. It is important that work let's put it in the cold and find time for the things we silenced during the week. Turn it off telephone for 24 hours, because that's the only way you'll be able to escape from the 'working Alcatraz'. Life isn't just work, either to enjoy need to know.
They don't cling to the couch
There are weeks that completely overwhelm you squeeze and all you want for the weekend is to kick back sofa and spend at least most of Saturday, if not Sunday, on it. Although this sounds very tempting, it has the opposite effect as it leads to depression and apathy. These are actually the 'metastases' of the Monday blues. Of course, there is nothing wrong if lie down in bed, but don't spend those days off horizontally. Activities such as the cinema, picnic, recreation and lunch with friends are things that actually rest your body and mind, the sofa is just a mask, a Potemkin village, the backdrop of a well-deserved rest that falls right on Monday.
They spend time with their family
After being 'missing in action' for a whole week, they take time for their loved ones. Family is sacred and although today's youngest generations seem to be on the leash of digital devices, these devices they will not keep you alive. So take advantage of these days, yes to the children you show that there is a world beyond the screen where there is no "ctrl+alt+del-ita" and infinite lives. Teach them to make fire and send smoke signals, because with Wi-Fi, etc. they find signals from birth, but that won't save them when they're lost somewhere behind God's back.
They don't think of it as a 'dumping ground' for housework
Yes suction, dusting and Laundry putting the weekend on your shoulders is one of the biggest mistakes. Admittedly, these are tasks for someone therapeutic, but not when you're on the roller coaster of capitalism for the week. Maybe the apartment will be cleaned, but it will remain in your head a mess and it's hard to get back into the work environment with a mess in your head. And Monday syndrome is here. Successful people do not postpone such matters to Saturdays and Sundays, because they are good time lords and these things are done during the week, when there are time 'breaks' in work, and the gap of time (read weekend) is thus reserved only for pleasure.
They don't let Monday intimidate them
We've probably all said it before “Oh, it's already Sunday. Work/school/fax again tomorrow!” Exterminate that mindset. This kind of thinking is like an invasive plant and will drink all the 'life juices' of Sunday during the day. It is a thief of happy moments and prevents you from taking advantage of everything the potentials of the lord's day. Instead of regretting, watching the 'apocalypse' weekend and its imminent end, switch to positively, which we call family, friends, some individual activity, etc. Because you're holding the remote mood in hand, not a day on the calendar.
