#221 Holidays Are Not Meant To Be Like A Phone Charger

16/12/2021

0 Comments

 
Picture
Just a quick reminder that your holidays aren't meant to be a time to recharge. They're there to be enjoyed. To relax, sure, but also to have the time and energy to do what you want in this time off you've saved up and earned. 
If you're working so hard that you need a holiday to get back on track, to get back to normal, to catch your breath, you're not needing time off but better boundaries to address a problematic work culture.

Your life, your choice!

    This is a daily, micro-blog, taking less than 2 minutes to read, offering you insights into how presumptions, beliefs and stories shape our lives and worldview, for better or worse.
    I've decided to not make these available via email subscription  as it's not climate friendly.
