Ep 434: Taking Vacations Is Good For Your Career (Really)

  • Resumen

  • We’re smack dab in the middle of one of the hottest summers on record and although the heat can make many of us go a little crazy, it also forces us to slow down a lot, spend some time by the pool or the beach (or in the comfort of your living room with the AC on full blast) and embrace boredom more. Celeste Headlee, author of, “Do Nothing: How to Break Away from Overworking, Overdoing, and Underliving,” joins us to talk about why taking all of your vacation days is good for your career and how to really disconnect when you’ve turned on your OOO. Takeaways: Embracing boredom and taking time for rest and relaxation can lead to better ideas and improved creativity. Taking vacations is essential for overall well-being and can lead to career success. Finding the best times for focused work and understanding our own productivity patterns can improve efficiency and work-life balance. Younger generations are rejecting toxic work culture and prioritizing work-life balance and well-being. Defining personal goals and focusing on end goals rather than means goals can lead to greater happiness and fulfillment. It's important to reevaluate priorities and find a healthy balance between work, rest, and personal fulfillment.
