A break from your career will help you rediscover yourself

Work, career, professional recognition, are the basic “musts”, which have become “wants” of entire generations.

Really, from elementary school onwards, the parents, the school, the society, have a demand from the children to coordinate with their parents’ dreams, to devote themselves to reading, in order to achieve the goal.

To study, to find a good job, to find a better job, to find the perfect job, where they will be CEOs and rule their own microcosm.

And just like that, the children, growing up, become adults in a pattern, as if they are on a roller coaster, which moves at a dizzying speed and they just change places.

So have you thought that maybe in this frenetic life, in this endless pursuit of success, you are missing things somewhere? Important things?

And if you’ve thought about it, what are you actually doing about it?

The break

Deciding to put your career on hold for a while is a very important decision. And that’s because, we live in uncertain times and you’ll always wonder if it’s worth the risk to leave your achievements just like that.

Essentially, though, you don’t leave anything behind. You’re just taking a break. See it as a gift to yourself. Like a unique opportunity to re-observe the world and yourself within it, to discover, to redefine.

Find again what inspires you, what motivates you, what your purpose is and what you want to leave behind.

Overall, taking a break from your career has many advantages. It is a new life experience.

First of all, you will escape for a while from the intensity and demanding rhythms of your work and you will see what is happening outside of it, in the real world.

Also, you will see the world with different eyes. And that in itself is an inspiration, which even if you still don’t understand it now, it will help you in the long run, even in your business.

You’ll rediscover what you like and don’t like, try new things, and yes, you might surprise yourself. For example, you may discover new hobbies or some talents or abilities that you didn’t know you had.

And something even more important. You will have a chance to rest. Lie down as much as you want, sleep as much as you want and generally be lazy, maybe for the first time in your life.

It’s also the chance to do everything you wanted and couldn’t. To put down your wish list and realize all those that you considered distant and elusive dreams.

And of course, after all this, you will be renewed, you will have a completely clear mind and fresh ideas.

The terms

So deciding to take this break from your career takes courage.

But it also requires a series of conditions, which must be present in order for you to take this step.

First of all, money is a key term. So, in order to be able to realize and take that longed-for break, you should have prepared properly. In other words, you should, long before, have arranged, save and save. Otherwise it doesn’t work.

Another important term is obligations. If you want to have the hope that your position will be waiting for you, you should have closed all your obligations. Of course, you will have informed about this break beforehand and will have made a plan of your professional matters.

For this very reason, you should have double-checked the start and end date of this break.

And of course, you should have thought of all the possibilities, even the fact that when you come back your place may no longer be there.

However, this break is worth the risk. Because this break will introduce you to the world.
