As a busy professional photographer I find that to retain my creativity I must step away from work on a regular basis . For me it is long distance walking and sailing . Each September my wife and I walk a section of the camino in Spain. We walk for between five and seven hours at a time, covering up to 24 km on a leg. Over five or six day we cover 125km. The amazing freedom this gives you is wonderful. It allows you clear out your mind from work and gives you a chance to concider the real values in life. During the rest of the year I sail. A few hours at a time gives you the break you need to get in touch with your head and your heart.

Some how the time you spend away from your business is probably the best business time of the year . To succeed you must be fresh . To be fresh in body and mind , you must invest in yourself .  Your creativity needs room to grow. Return to business then with energy and vigorous. But  minute by minute, 

 life is passing you by. Grab it.
