Last week I took a complete break from Twitter: Sunday through Sunday.

I logged off from both my iMac and my iPhone and not once during the week did I sign back on.

I didn’t tweet out my blog posts (which I still published daily). I didn’t check for direct messages, retweets or comments. I didn’t even check my statistics.

I just let it go for a week.

And guess what? The world didn’t fall apart. I didn’t lose thousands of followers. I didn’t miss it. I just got some other work done.

I think I’ll schedule these Twitter vacations more often.
