What is the point of a vacation? Vacations help improve one’s #physical and #MentalHealth, and it makes people discover new things about themselves and what they want to do with their lives. Each year, #Americans leave more than 600 million #vacation days unused. Our work martyr attitudes combined with a culture of #silence in the #workplace is keeping workers at their desks instead of using their time off. To change this, National Plan for Vacation Day reminds us to plan our vacation at the start of the year for the rest of the year.

Planners are more likely to take all their vacation time in a given work year and take more extended vacations than non-planners. They are also #happier with their #jobs, #relationships, and #health. So don't knock the planners who get out the door to vacation! Get #planning![ Steve O.
