I just arrived at our cabin in the mountains in Norway for a week off. Yes, I will be relaxing for a week trying not to do any business. It´s very important as an entrepreneur that you do activities that are non-business related and switch off properly. Relaxation is proven to help you produce higher quality work when you are working.
While I´m in the mountains I will train in an inclusive way. That means I will work on my mind, body and soul all in unison. That is something I try to daily no matter where I am. That means I will meditate in the morning and do my daily journal etc. It´s a holiday, but not from my positive habits, they are ingrained and a BIG part of my life.

Unbeatable Mind: Forge Resiliency and Mental Toughness to Succeed at an Elite Level by Mark Divine
Probably the best book I have read on mindset and the importance of inclusive training. If you think you can only train your mind and not do anything physical to build mental toughness you are wrong. Inclusive training is when you train your body, mind and soul daily to live the life you want. Mark Divine will be featured on Invincible Entrepreneur in a few week and is an ex Navy Seal Commander. He is the real deal so check him out!

Mindful Meditation
Mindfulness meditation is a centuries-old practice advocated by the Great Buddha to attain spiritual and psychological enlightenment. It involves focusing on your thoughts and action in the present without judging yourself. “In Mindfulness practice, just by sitting and doing nothing, we are doing a tremendous amount.”– Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche
