It’s okay to take a break.

Phone rings… “Hi, how are you, ya? I heard you left your high-paying job and have taken a break. And you have started something of your own, following your passion? But how will you earn? What about your growth and career success, ya?”

The Receiver: Thank you for so many questions and your concern. Well, since you asked, it’s for my mental wellness. Once again, thank you for your GENUINE CONCERN!

Well, It is okay to take a break. It is okay to work on yourself and not burn yourself out, both mentally and physically.

Well, the flip side is that not everyone can take a break owing to their responsibilities. But many times, the adverse happens when we do not give due respect and importance to our mental and physical well-being.

The feeling of guilt and being dependent kicks in, there is remorse and your mind is at the peak of uncertainty. Many a time, we humans always choose careers over ourselves. In this rat race, we ourselves don’t realize when we get lost in this race and a lot of time drown in this journey. 

It is okay to take a break and come back stronger, calmer and fresher than ever.

Fortunately, things are changing for the better with the rise of mental health awareness and Individuals adapting to healthier lifestyles. 

This simple decision to take a break, which was once frowned upon, is now a strong tribute to the transformational impact of prioritizing mental and physical health. It’s a story that mirrors many people’s unspoken longings, rewriting the success script for a generation awakened to the beauty of life’s unpredictability.

“I am at my lowest today, I was at my lowest yesterday but that does not determine my future. I take it upon myself to bounce back, the only thing I am grateful for is during these tough times the true characters were revealed. This break was a gift to myself as life happened and I stared at all the success outside while in the darkness I found myself”.- RVA

I am coming back! MAA Rakha 🙂
