Importance of taking break from work

It has been worldwide recognised that periodically taking breaks from your work is absolutely necessery for personality development.One feel well-rested, energetic and bursting with new ideas. I strongly believe that taking time off from your job is not only desirable, it's imperative. If all you do is work, what can you possibly bring to your job but more of the same? ... the same perspective on things, the same ideas, the same way of doing things. Spending time away from work allows you to explore other interests which will make you well-rounded. Breaks from work will let you see things with a fresh eye enhancing your creativity and problem-solving skills.

If you begin working early in the morning and don't quit until bedtime, there will be no room in your life to focus on anything but your job. So make sure you take some time for non-work activities at regular intervals in addition to regular vacations. Here's how one can spend some of his time away from work:
· Read a good book (non-work related, of course)
· Keep up with world news, sports etc.
· Travel for pleasure
· Volunteer your time
· Talk to people with whom you feel free and who are really close to your heart
· Enjoy a hobby

All these ideas are great but what to do if a break is forced upon you? I think the same priniple applies here too and that is the best way to cope up with the problems you are facing.
