Turn off the alarm for that routine - you don’t have to check anything off and your streak will remain intact when you turn the alarm back on
Re-think the routines for the vacations, you can go back to the previous routine when you get back from vacations. Take a screenshot of the previous routine to not forget.
One thing I’ve been doing in that situation is replacing the work related rituals with temporary substitute rituals that fit the situation, then still checking them off. It’s only for a short while but better to keep reinforcing the habit than not at all! :)
I try to fit in the work that I have to do on my vacations days. If o have to write a 800 word paper I should fit it in the first day of vacation at a free time so then I have the rest of the day free and I don’t have to think of that piece of work for the rest of my vacation.
O guess you can modify some habits or tasks while this breake. For what I read it’s super important celebrate your achievements and reward you for your good job
I believe is better to give your work smth like 2-3 hours daily, concentrate maximum on them and then relax at the highest point.
I understand what you mean by that and I feel like if you can try to still do them but maybe not at the times you usually do them then that would be best
I just choose a task that is not work related and „work“ on that instead, like washing the dishes or folding laundry. If you‘re on a trip, that task can be a workout, a hike or whatever you’re doing on vacation.
I would say just check them off. A holiday is still important to your motivation. Everyone needs a break to recalibrate. As long as you still look after yourself and your own well-being in that time, it’ll all be okay.
Do you have a hobby you could use for deep working? Reading something for fun could be a way of having some quiet, reflective time for example. I still do my to do lists, but they don’t have to be work related!
