Thanks for the advice! The Gibbs reflective cycle can help you anyway, whether you studying or on holiday. As for me your ability to comprehend and benefit from this "learning from experience" process is the goal of Gibbs' Reflective Model: https://productive.fish/blog/gibbs-reflective-cycle/

Thanks for this piece. I should definitely make an appointment with myself. This semester has been overwhelming - a lot of teaching, tutoring, committees, and even some research - I can't stop dreaming of holidays!

I hope you do keep that appointment with yourself, Maggie. What a busy semester!

I am not a machine. I need to take regular breaks, both during the workday and weekends. I also need a vacation that doesn't include taking my laptop so that I can still work.
