I entirely agree Jacq…

Sometimes you need to take a breather so you can work better later.

Hooray for you Kim! Sadly, most people are attached to their computers or computer related devices like glue.

I took last weekend off from my computer and felt so much better after I did it!

Sheila, most of us fall into the Superwoman trap. There’s a better way to live and that’s realizing that we cannot do it all without risking our health. BRAVO for changing your life for the better!

Good for you Reena! Seems as if you’ve incorporated BALANCE into your life. With heart disease on the rise for women, we definitely need to concentrate on some ME time.

Good post on refreshing. Actually, by taking a holiday, we might perform better in the workplace and the output will be definitely better than without taking a rest. I take my break every weekend. I just make sure to go for a movie (once a week), gym workout (5 times a week), seaside walk (once a week), holiday vacation point either local or foreign (6 months once).

It is good for family also.

As with most of us, I learned the hard way. By that time I was practically drained. And sometimes, even now, I still don’t know when to quit. But I never let it get to the point of exhaustion or cost the quality of what I’m doing.

It pays all the way around your life to renew yourself.

SHaE, you’re absolutely right. I’ve always preferred PERFORMANCE versus being tied to a rigid five day work week. A lot of companies are being a bit more flexible, but it should be universal.

I fully agree. That’s why I advocate 4 day work weeks. That one day off is just what people need to rest, run errands or go to appointments so they can focus during the other 4 days they are at the office.

Until we learn better, we’ll spend most of our time trying to impress people we don’t know and ultimately pay a HEFTY price for doing so. It’s YOUR life. Take better care of it by making your mental and physical health a priority.

I am glad that you wrote this! Sometimes we get so caught up in our lives that it is hard to step back, take a look at where we are, and have some fun. Thanks.

I agree! You don’t really need a long vacation in order to get refreshed. Cheers!
