This is a holdover from the days when I used to run IT organizations. Usually, many of my colleagues at my clients would take time off over holiday breaks.I found that is the most productive time for me – as I mentioned in my 4 am post, one of the best times to work, is when no one else is working. It may be a sad commentary, but, paraphrasing Sartre, sometimes “time-wasting is other people” There is nothing like stepping into an almost empty office, and solidly focusing on work, with no distractions of other people asking you to do this or that. If you have a solid set of work to do, try NOT taking time off over the holidays, like your co-workers – you will be surprised by what you can get done. support the show: https://anchor.fm/60usefulseconds/support
