You take care of yourself, man. That has to come first and anyone that appreciates you knows that.

We’re gonna fucking miss you James! But do what you need to do to feel 100% and we’ll all be here waiting when you get back.

Waaah, I want my free stuff and I want it now! Kidding, have a break, recharge, get fit, as fellow mid 50 year old, I agree that it’s so easy to lose but so hard to get back that fitness.

Rest efficiently, because you'll be back before you know it and you'll feel like you never left. I'll have time to catch up on stacks I've missed because I haven't slowed down when I should.

Yes. Take naps. Take days off. Laugh. Hire another Researcher. Seek truth in thought and the words will flow. Billserle.com.

I will really miss your posts, but take of yourself and get better! Sounds like you really need to rest. I got your book for christmas, and love (!) it, and can’t wait for another one!

You should come check out Edgemont Athletic gym to ease back into the fitness. Lots of options for gentle classes to start.

Take care! Putting you in the light!

No worries, I've gotten more than I deserve from you as a cheap freebie subscriber. So, you owe this individual nada. Just an FYI, I'm retired and on a rather limit fixed budget, and have maxed out my subscriptions on here and two newspapers. And, should trump be hired again for POTUS, I might have to cut out those indulgences.

Stay safe, and do you right.

HAHAHA HAHA I was caught by your title and now the pinned post. More than likely will become a subscriber too. I'm such a non-social media person I hesitate... but man, your writing is genuine, funny and I'd love to keep reading. You do sound like a workaholic - so listen to yourself and put your wellness first. I'm sure you are fabulously successful already.

Writing and marketing and running social media - each of those are full time jobs on their own. I'm glad you're taking a break and giving yourself the time you need to recharge. Taking care of yourself should always come first (even if you have paid subscribers). Quality work manifests with less effort when your cup is full.
