Do we need Holidays?

When I thought about this topic, I felt, probably it not necessary as most of people get a minimum of 1 day to a 3 day off from their work, depending upon the nature & industry they work in.

To be practical, these are not holidays but these are off's from your regular work, so that you can get some rest from the morning rushes, meetings, deadlines etc….

You are just switching off [however your mind is in pause mood] to resume your work on a Monday but you are still on as you need to cater yourself to your family, probably half minded, as you have your next week work load in your mind!

When I meant Holiday, it means you need to off from your work, family & friends far away, probably with your loved one, where you can enjoy and give some time for yourself & your loved ones a thought!

Holidays are something that TRANSFORMS your LIFE to a different one. It gives you the energy, time and mind to review what you have planned for and what you can achieve further ahead of.

What are the benefits of a holiday?

  1. It refreshes your mind & body
  2. It further bonds you with your family / loved ones
  3. It improves your self-confidence
  4. It gives new ideas to explore

There are so many other benefits which can be listed …however that needs to felt while doing it!

Now, coming to drawbacks…

  1. You need to plan it for your stay, travel & food.
  2. You need to budget your holiday within your financial limitations

Taking off or away from duty is not important, you should be away from your city or place or home where you regularly stay.

Recommendations: Take holiday for a span of 3 to 5 days, twice a year.
