Q: If you have a project hanging over your head during your vacation, you will not be able to relax. Finish major projects before you leave, even if it means working more. You'll thank yourself later. Leave your team ready to continue in your absence. Before your vacation, spend the previous week making sure everyone else has what they need to do their jobs well. With everyone else able to continue getting the work done, you do not need to worry about it yourself. If you have a plan for getting the work done, you will not feel overwhelmed by it. If your plan doesn't include working on your vacation, you can reassure yourself that as long as you stick to the plan, it will get done. Your plan should be specific. Include precisely what work will get done and when you will do it. Part of the stress of leaving work is the uncertainty about work that still needs doing. Your plan will help remove that uncertainty. You can set up your e-mail to auto-reply to e-mail you receive. This will let people know when you will be back and when they can expect a reply. This saves you from having to worry about unanswered e-mail. Specify that you will not be able to check your e-mail for the entire duration of your time off work. This will help give you the freedom from feelings of obligation to check and respond to messages. Setting up the auto-reply message will depend on the e-mail client you use. Regardless, it is a simple process. This can be easier said than done. However, one of the most stressful things about a vacation can be thinking about all of the things that need to be done when you return. Leave behind any physical work (e.g. paperwork), in the office. If you take it with you, you will feel pressured to work on it. If you're really inclined to bring work home, lock it into your filing cabinet or cupboard at work and give a co-worker the key. Tell them to give the key back to you only when you return to work.
A: Finish projects before you leave. Write a plan for the work you need to do when you get back from vacation. Set an out of office auto-reply message. Leave work at work.

Article: Your feelings are just as valid as your partner's. If you are uncomfortable or unhappy with keeping the relationship a secret, understand that you don't have to stay in it. Don't sacrifice your happiness for someone else who doesn't consider your feelings. To get some perspective, talk to a trusted friend about what you are feeling. You might say, "Hey, I wanted to talk with someone about my relationship with Brandy. Will you listen?" Trust is one of the most important factors in a relationship. If you don't believe that what your partner is saying is the actual truth, then it may be time to move on. Your gut instinct is often right, but make sure to fairly assess the situation in its entirety before making any big decisions. Be mindful of your own insecurities and fears that may have carried over from previous relationship experiences. Don't let those affect your current relationship and the decisions you make. Discuss your doubts with your partner. Tell them what your fears and worries are and if they aren't able to make you feel better with what they say, then this may not be a relationship in which you should stay. Start the conversation with something like, "I really care about you and I like being with you, but I'm concerned. Can you explain why you want to keep us a secret?" Keeping a relationship a secret may be exciting at first, but over time, it could become a problem. You may not want to keep the charade going, which could lead to you feeling jealous, depressed, lonely, and insecure. Feeling like this in a new relationship usually isn't a good start. Reach out to a school counselor or another trusted adult to talk about what you're feeling. Discussing the matter with an impartial third party can help you clarify what you want and decide on what you want to do about it. If you have surveyed your partner's reasoning and decided that you trust them, then the next step is to move forward with love and acceptance. Honor your partner's wishes and know that keeping your relationship private--for the right reasons--does not detract from you building a healthy, satisfying union. In some situations, keeping a relationship secret is for the best until you decide where it's going or make a more serious commitment. Meanwhile, think of your secret relationship as something precious that the world can't yet know about.
