It’s April.
That means it’s National Autism Awareness Month, if you didn’t already know that. One easy way you can help the cause is by spreading the word about
.
AutismHR helps autistic adults utilize their skills to earn a meaningful income from work they're skilled at and enjoy by way of the Gig Economy -- AutismHR provides tutorials to help individuals get started.
Beyond that, my family and I just got back from a short vacation (spring break from school for the kids).
It was nice to really unplug and spend a lot of quality time with my family. It was refreshing. Definitely the change of pace I needed to help refuel. I think the rest of my family feels similarly.
Here are a few things I learned about getting away that was helpful, and may help you too:
I need to change my scenery (probably more often than I do)
I need to unplug more often
I need to find inspiration (this is easier to do when you unplug and change your scenery at the same time).
I need to be present in the moment (again, this ends up happening when you allow yourself to do the above).
I need to laugh with people I care about and who care about me. (On our vacation, I got to laugh with my kids and my wife about our family’s silly inside jokes, and it was very uplifting, I recommend trying it.)
Now that I’m home and ready to get back into the work week I can’t help but feel a little closer to my wife and kids than I did before our vacation -- it brought us together.
It just made me realize that even though I put a ton of effort into working hard, I need to spend just as much effort into playing hard with my family, and more often.
Have a great week!
