Work/Life Balance Tips for Entrepreneurs Part 2
In the first Work/Life balance post we emphasized the importance of time management and embracing new technologies to improve the quality of your life. This time it is all about taking time to relax despite our busy schedules.

Lifehack recommends that you make a list of what you must leave behind during vacations or relaxations such as:
Your laptop, your BlackBerry, your PDA, any paperwork from the office, any work-related reading matter. You must treat those as a recovering alcoholic should treat beer, wines, or spirits: absolutely forbidden!
Life Coach’s Blog says do not wait until you are dead to relax. Moreover, Great Bodies recommends that you think of relaxation as an investment.
