So to get out of that groove this year, I'm going to plan the time off, and let everyone and their mother know, months and months in advance. That way, things are scheduled before a project even exists in someone's mind. Hopefully that leaves me feeling less guilty about taking the time I deserve.

The "Trust Your System" comment is a big one that so many people miss. I try to treat my task list the same way I treat my inbox - get to 0 as often as possible. If you aren't getting to it, you won't get to it. Great stuff Kelly. The "Trust Your System" comment is a big one that so many people miss.
