How and Why I Took a Mini-Retirement, with Bob Lotich

#164: As an entrepreneur, Bob Lotich loves growing and expanding. But after a particularly stressful year, he realized he had burned out. He woke up one Monday morning and, for the first time since he’d started self-employment, he realized he didn’t want to go to work. This was a new and uncomfortable feeling. He decided to take a mini-retirement. He had taken long breaks before. In the past, Bob had taken a full month off of work. This time, he wanted to a more ambitious break. He wanted to take a quarter off. He went to his whiteboard. He wrote the goal “take a sabbatical,” intending for this to last for three months. But then he paused. He wondered if he spelled the word “sabbatical” correctly. He Googled the word, then started reading about the concept. Bob learned that a sabbatical is historically a one-year break. Hmmm. That’s when he changed direction. Bob Lotich shares the reasons he decided to take a full year off work.
