Sometimes, the stress of it all just gets to you. In this fast paced generation, everything is about leading the rat race and being the best. What we fail to realise is that we all function in different ways: some people are alright with working all the time, but some people need more. Why live like a zombie when you can fly like an eagle? Here's a couple of reasons why taking some time off is one of the best things you could do right now.

5. At last you can do what you love

You can rekindle your old passions: write, paint, sing and indulge what some call the right side of your brain!

6. Finally you can reconnect with yourself, reflect and set your goals

You'll finally understand the saying "find what you love and let it kill you" once you take this break.
