I have quite a high stress job in London and every now and then the stress gets just a little biut too much for me. Whenever this happens I just try to remove myself from my situation, go somewhere else for a few days, and relax and unwind. I am fortunate in a way that I am able to take whatever time off work I need, within reason. The nature of the job is that you look after your own clients, and the company is happy as long as you are performing.
That was the situation a couple of months ago, and I knew that I just had to remove myself from the situation. I started to have a quick look around online for any last minute travel deals, and I found some very cheap Edinburgh flights. I loved Scotland and it is somewhere that I have been to hide away before. There is so much to do in the city of Edinburgh, and it is so easy to jump in a cab and hit the links of a fabulous golf course for the afternoon. It is one of the most rejuvenating and refreshing places that I have ever been to, so when I saw the flights I bought them there and then.
The week in Edinburgh was exactly what I needed at the time and I can honestly say that on my return to work I was like a man possessed. I resolved all of my problems, got my clients in line, and had one of the most successful months of my career!
