Going "Off the Grid" in 24 hours... need YOUR help!

Hey Bigger-Rocketeers. In 24 hours my wife and daughter and I will role into our vacation rental in the Outer Banks. Reading Willpower Doesn't Work ahead of time and remembering @Brandon Turner's 3 day fast from his phone I'm thinking about doing the same thing; going completely off the grid for at least three days while I spend focused time with my family. I'm excited about what positive results this will bring but its also a bit scary! I lead a real estate team with three other agents, and manage several clients myself. Was curious your thoughts on two things: 

1. Successfully disconnecting while still leaving my team and clients in a good place? 

2. What should I expect mentally with this drastic shift and how should I leverage this opportunity in the best way? 

Looking forward to your thoughts on this personal development for the next 24 hours and then will catch up afterwords hahah. Any BP people in OBX? 

Cheers!

I do this for one week every year when I go to Trilingual TX for the International Chili Cook off Championship. 

Until a few years ago you couldn't even get cell service but now if you drive into town or hold your phone just right you can make a call. Internet and texting pretty much doesn't work at all.  

If anyone one wants to unplug come on down and we can talk real estate,  drink some good scotch and smoke some fine cigars. Oh and eat some of the world's best chili to.
