A vacation is what you take when you can no longer take what you have been taking. - Earl Wilson Life is busy. Our everyday life gets into a routine which is very hard to escape. Between the constant repetition of work, it's easy to get caught up in the vortex of the 'I-must-always-be-productive' mindset which means working more to earn more. But there comes a critical point when doing more doesn't lead to more happiness, success or productivity. That's when it's time for a break. If you show any of these signs, you totally deserve a vacation:

1. The first thing you say to yourself as soon as you wake up is FML because another day is starting, and you will go to work and eventually you will die.

2. You're always tired and sleepy. You stare blankly at your system as you just can't concentrate.
