G'day PJ, (a little Aussie lingo:-? )

I do most activities in my life, including RV, in cycles as you mention,
only my cycles are self-imposed, or better yet, pre-determined.  My
rationale for these breaks is this: I believe we have to continually improve
whatever it is we're doing, and by taking short breaks it not only keeps me
from burning out on it, but more importantly, by intentionally stepping away
from it for a while, it allows new, and hopefully improved ideas and
insights to creep in during the latent periods.  If I never take a break
from certain activities, I almost always find myself doing the same routines
and having the same paradigms ad nauseam, and never thinking of anything new
and improved.  I think it also keeps me from having the internal struggles
you speak of.  An added bonus is that I'm excited to get back at it after a
two or three week vacation.  I know other people who insist on never
deviating from their routines, and I'm sure that works for them.  Different
strokes...
