Ah, summertime! Certainly, summer is a season for rest, but is productivity still possible? How can we plan for a fun, meaningful, and productive summer? Some of our Grace staff weigh in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Think One-On-One for Older Kids<\/h4>\n

Kelly Adkins, Experience Director<\/span><\/i>
\nAs my kids have gotten older, our family has naturally gravitated away from group experiences for the whole fam and moved to more personal interactions that are focused on each person. So while we still do things as a family when we can, and we have traditions and rituals, too, balance has become less about setting aside longer times for everyone and more about stepping into shorter moments beside each other as a couple or with each kid.<\/span><\/p>\n

That can look like asking a question and then just listening in the car, a quick lunch date when two of us are free, an afternoon of hands-on help to teach the kids how to file taxes or shop for an apartment, or an hour focused around someone\u2019s fave hobby (for example, my daughter is really into doing nails and skincare right now, so for this summer we’ve invented Drugstore Mondays, where we’ll grab a Starbucks and then a couple of new cosmetics for her to play with each week!). I don\u2019t diminish my work in front of them \u2014 it\u2019s a gift from God, and it provides for them. But I look for those moments God is prompting me to set it aside for a time and say even to my teen and adult kids that \u201cyou\u2019re my focus right now, and mom always has your back.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Build a Buffer Around Your Vacation<\/h4>\n

Rick Garrett, Executive Pastor<\/span><\/i>
\nFor years, I wanted to leave town and start vacation as soon as possible. A few years ago, I ended up with a few days at home before and after our actual vacation and I will never go back. It takes me a day or two to fully unplug and a day or two to ramp back up to work. Without the buffer on either side of our family trip, I am distracted from or easily annoyed by my family the first and last few days of the trip as my mind is still thinking about winding down or gearing up for work. I realized I really only had one or two good days with the family. Now I’m able to tie up loose ends and truly shut down work before taking off, and know that I will have a full day to plan and catch up before I jump right back into the swing of things.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Divide Your Day into Color Zones<\/h4>\n

Clint Harrison, Oviedo Campus Pastor<\/span><\/i>
\nSomething that\u2019s been really helpful for me is thinking of my day in terms of color zones. I got this from Carey Nieuwhof\u2019s <\/span>At Your Best.<\/span><\/i> Your freshest time of day is the \u201cgreen\u201d zone. This is when you should do your most creative work. When you feel yourself burning out, you\u2019re entering the \u201cyellow\u201d zone, and by \u201cred\u201d you\u2019re no longer productive.<\/span><\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the thing \u2013 you kids don\u2019t always need your \u201cgreen\u201d time. During family vacation, sure, give them all the zones! But when you need to work, be strategic about aligning tasks with the appropriate zones. Do your deep-thinking tasks when you\u2019re \u201cgreen,\u201d and then go play with the kids when you\u2019re \u201cyellow\u201d or even \u201cred.\u201d You don\u2019t need brain power to throw a frisbee or watch a Marvel movie. Plus, if you keep trying to work while you\u2019re in the \u201cred,\u201d you won\u2019t produce quality work anyway. By thinking this way, I\u2019ve been able to increase productivity and create better rhythms in general. (Another great activity for the \u201cred\u201d zone is exercise. Don\u2019t exercise when you\u2019re fresh and energized; do it when you\u2019re exhausted and stressed and you\u2019ll double productivity.) One other thing to note \u2013 not everyone\u2019s \u201cgreen\u201d zone is the same. My wife can produce really creative work late at night when the kids are in bed, whereas my \u201cgreen\u201d zone is first thing in the morning. So we help each other out by respecting that time.<\/span><\/p>\n

Communicate Clear Expectations<\/h4>\n

Grant Nixon, Winter Garden Campus Pastor<\/span><\/i>
\nIt\u2019s important to remember that during the summer you still have your schedule, but your kids don\u2019t. I find myself getting frustrated with them sometimes \u2013 especially during the summer \u2013 because my schedule and their lack of schedule are in conflict. So I think it\u2019s important to use really positive language that\u2019s clear and also gracious. <\/span><\/p>\n

We always try to have something for them to look forward to, and we constantly point them back to that. So in those moments where I really have to get stuff done, I tell them, \u201cI\u2019m not ignoring you. I\u2019m getting this done so that we can do something special later.\u201d You constantly have to communicate the \u201cwhy\u201d behind your work. \u201cI\u2019m doing this for our family. One of the ways God provides for us is through Mom and Dad\u2019s work. And as soon as I\u2019m finished, we can go do that fun thing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Plan a Weekly Family-Fun Day<\/h4>\n

Ashley Weaver, Orlando Worship Director<\/span><\/i>
\nAt the beginning of my week, I purposefully set aside at least one day when we can do family stuff \u2013 go to the springs, SeaWorld, the beach, the park, etc. I\u2019m very big on getting work done first, then I can relax. Because if I don\u2019t, I don\u2019t relax and my mind goes elsewhere. So, I make sure that I get everything done that needs to be set and finalized for a weekend at Grace so that we can enjoy those family days together. My kids look forward to those each week and so do I!<\/span><\/p>\n

Work in Blocks of Time\u2026and Be Gracious<\/h4>\n

Kyle Carden, Oviedo Campus Pastor<\/span><\/i>
\nSince I work primarily from home and do regular, repeated tasks and project-based work, I try \u2013 especially in the summer \u2013 to work in blocks. Setting aside blocks of time to accomplish tasks allows you to plan to fill some of those blocks with family events that are maybe outside the norm, while maintaining productivity. With our family schedule, these blocks could also include pickup times or regular activities the kids are involved in, as well as special events, trips, etc. <\/span><\/p>\n

Summer work\/family balance for us requires a little bit of grace and expecting things to be a bit hectic at times. Mentally, you kind of have to prepare yourself for the summer, knowing that it won\u2019t be perfect, and it will definitely be messy.<\/span><\/p>\n
