Many of you may be thinking about not taking a vacation this year. But perhaps this Washington Post article will make you think again:
The article says many people skip vacation due to the “indispensability syndrome: A fallacious emotional urge rooted deep in our desire to be wanted and needed“, and that it’s not a healthy thing. It even points out that in some industries it can lead to problems.
And even if that’s not your reason, vacations are important—they give you a chance to step back and take a broader perspective.
So plan a vacation this summer and take it. Cut loose and take some time off!
