Your mind needs to rest
Who among us does not need to leave the re-activate the body and make it more effective at all other times?, But the problem is that a large number of holidays that come up to these days are not holidays at all!.
So says Joe Robinson, author of the book: Working for profit: a guide to get a life.
Robinson says that Americans are suffering from so-called "holiday chaos" but they do not even acknowledge the existence of a problem. It sometimes up to the competition between colleagues of whom has no life except work!
Americans are working more than any other people, in fact, more than about 100 hours per year. More than a factor of Japan. And more than three months from the Europeans.
And America is the only country which is not considered paid holidays legally binding, while the Chinese get three weeks a year, and the Europeans about six weeks.
The diminished rate holiday in the United States is now up to three or four days, and during this year, according to a recent poll, the one out of every seven Americans does not get passed at all.
The problem is that you give him little time for ourselves can not achieve what the holiday is supposed to achieve, you need more time to revitalize your body after a work in progress.
Robinson advised deduct enough time and get a holiday event not less than two weeks to give the body and mind rest desired.
But getting more than a week is not an easy job, especially these days, as have staff in most cases, to beg their bosses, and the result is that they then feel guilty for the holiday.
Robinson also pointed out that the Americans entered the circle of hard work began with the recession in the early eighties and then escalated in the late eighties with a series of technological developments - fax, computers and mobile phones. "We have a lot of tools that do not even know how to use them all, and we still give ourselves a false sense of urgency."
Add to that the fact that the work have been reduced, and became everyone to work more than a profession and additional hours. We live in a "world without borders" between work and life.
Work more than 48 hours per week doubles the size of the tension, and displays of heart disease.
Robinson insists that the belief that Europeans are lazy, but is not a myth. "Fact is that they perform more than required in less time. And four European countries are more efficient and productive from the United States: France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Norway. In these companies are management techniques allowed the staff to give the longest."
In contrast, in America, the directors have a phobia reason to keep all employees in place at all times, otherwise everything will collapse!, As well as the overtime is not productive because they are mind overwrought, numerous studies have shown that most Americans do not get appropriate hours of sleep.
"If you work 50 hours a week for seven weeks in a row, you will not accomplish what can be offered only if you work for forty hours a week for seven weeks in a row."
As well as for all the holidays that we get no holidays at all, because we bring to work with us to where we go!, Not only take the mobile phone and laptop but think about the work that concerns you all enjoy and engage in the comparison between the places that I visited and the amount of work that could have been produced within three days!.
""You have to replace your luggage before it have to", so see Robinson. "Put a list of things that do not have to carry with you during the holiday .. labor problems, the manager, colleagues, career advancement, computers and mobile phones ... I carry away until you return to it."."
Add to the list of things that you should leave it before you leave, feeling guilty for taking a vacation. Put aside also the issues of productivity measurement and remember how to "enjoy" emptiness.
