I ll take it easy this weekend unless see an e-mail that mentions one of my manuscript needs revision or a joirnal ask me review an article ,etc. than I would create /spare some time to do that chore In my leisure time.

Make time for important relationships. Good time with those you love is always time well spent.

In addition learn something new.

Dear Reuben Tamakloe,

Rest is necessary for successful labor - the secret is that you can rest more or less productively.

Successful intellectual and creative activity is a product of the efforts of the individual. It is precisely for the development of the personality that productive leisure is needed - that is, an active time of transmission, reflections, sports, self-development, and communication with inspiring people. All this becomes a fuel for our intellect and is converted into a movement of creative forces. During the rest, you do not work - but at the same time collect luggage, which is sure to come in handy for work.

Regards,

Shafagat

Thanks for sharing!

Personally i would not look on my computer screen the whole of Saturday, and on sunday i would learn something and prepare for monday!

Read some articles and read books

All kinds of fishing (spinning, ice fishing, fly-casting) and serious cards playing.

At my age to laze around. At the age of Reuben at study.

Well noted Professor Leonardo Cannizzaro

Relaxing

Pursue your interests.

It's better to give yourself a break by turning to other activities.You can sleep for much longer hours than weekdays, sometimes without alarm to give your brain the stability it yearns for after days of cumbersome work in the lab. In case, you've some work pending, then you can work at night and take a time out for yourself (chilling out with friends) in afternoons. I think, that could auger well for most of us.

على الرغم من مرور معظم الأوقات بالعمل كمدرس وباحث فضلا عن متطلبات الحياة الأسرية وواجباتها. إلا أن الحصول على بعض الوقت يمكن أن أقضيه في متابعة الرامج والتقارير والأخبار العلمية في التلفاز أو الانترنيت

It is always nice to spend quality time during the weekend with family!

Many researchers find it difficult to save time for their personal lives. As well as the difficulty in finding a balance between work, family, and self.

Weekend time is not merely applicable to researcher but it appraise to all profession personnel with their working with the watch & obviously this appraise to our researcher .

For weekend time we know that the program is generally fixed in advance with the family & also with our children & as such our family & they are waiting for the weekend in pleasure .

This is personal opinion

Weekend with something totally different. For example, just family.

Light working activities, have enough rest, spend quality time with family and make adequate preparation for the week ahead.

As many others, of course. I not see principal difference between scientist and service manager, for example.

There are still national features, first of all. In addition - even climatic ones. For example, in most parts of Russia, the year falls into two main share - winter (cold, short daylight hours, transport restrictions (especially far from big cities), winter clothing, winter sports, etc.); and summer, which is the complete opposite of winter. In addition, there are still "transitional periods" - spring and autumn, the main features of which are the abundance of moisture (rain and melting snow). Therefore, the life is divided into several parts. In winter, it is mostly work with rare forays "on nature" or in museums, concerts, theaters or to cinema; and in summer, it is mostly life in nature. Many people even live in summer in two houses (city flat and the outside "dacha"). They spend time mostly outside the city, and drive to work for many kilometers, or go on vacation. Of course, because of this seasonality, in summer, people see a family much more often (especially since children have long vacations in summer). Lovers of summer life arrange "excursion into summer "- they go to the tropics on vacation in the "cold season" at home. Then the problem of clothes arises ... I traveled this way several times from +20 to -30 С. It is not so easy (abour 15-20 kilos of extra baggage ) ...

It is generally difficult for foreigners here. One Chinese acquaintance asked whole spring: “When will the leaves finally appear on the trees?”. And in the winter he was visibly suffering. On the contrary, one African praises our weather all the time - every day something new! I don’t know how long his optimism will be exist ...

Use weekends to relax, stay around people that cools your nerves like your family. Play games that you enjoy.

I used to write -RG when I was working !!!! Now , I live pretty much in RG :)

My passion is definitely conducting research. Yet, I'm not that fortunate as I can only conduct my research on my spare time as a customs officer. On weekends, I try my best to catch up with my fellow researchers, lectures, and policy analysts. It certainly is fun, as I can get the latest updates, get answers for my inquiries, and get accompanied by scholars.

Its been great reading the contributions posted here. In short, most of the contributions gravitate towards our health and social relations. It is good to know that no matter where we find ourselves, or no matter what we do, it is best to think about our health in terms of stress management.

Thanks for sharing the link Proff. Segun Michael Abegunde . There are many thoughts there that are also worth noting.

Mostly, working.

With family .

Many things as playing with our granddaughter, helping my wife, visiting relatives, and going out with my wife or just resting.

Thank you all for your comments.
