Time to play.........
Ever heard the expression all work and no play makes’ Jack a dull boy?Well the dangers of ‘all work’ and not taking time out to do fun things will eventually lead to burn out. Unfortunately the symptoms of burn out are not always evident immediately as they slowly appear over a period of time....unless you recognize them and take steps to change your lifestyle or habits it can be quite detrimental to your physical health, your emotional state of mind, your personal relationships and very importantly your ability to function competently in the work arena.
Some of the tell tale signs are.......
1)When your friends mention you are no fun anymore because you take yourself too seriously.
2)You battle to concentrate......almost to the point where your speech becomes incoherent.
3)Sleep patterns and eating habits are abnormal.
4) A sense of detachment, of feeling alone in the world.
5)You isolate yourself by withdrawing from others.
6)It takes forever to do the simplest of tasks....everything becomes a drag to do.....
Once you recognize that something is wrong it is up to you to make the changes.....starting with play therapy.......go do those things that you enjoy and get your zest for life back by simply having fun.

Indeed if the area is large, even run behind mowers provide therapy (and exercise too) that makes forgetting the outside world easy.
Regarding my own yard, as some of the sharper eyed have noticed, I now have a household staff, and with their consent I am releasing this picture of my housemates forgetting the outside world after I consented to allow them to mow one of the smaller pastures. So guy, my mowing is being done as I write.
