Should I take time off work?

[Anonymous]

I've been working (employed) for 10 years non stop. I changed few companies but always jumped straight the next day to work, never had a longer break then 2 weeks mandatory holidays. I work in IT so pay and benefits are good, but to be honest I've lost the passion I had about it. I feel like I want to explore new things, focus on personal projects and maybe change career completely. And of course just rest. I have enough in savings to live comfortably for a year without working, but I would have to return to my home country that I left few years ago for that period. Because I have my own flat there and it's 70% cheaper. I have friends and family there, but I don't really like the country to be honest, if not for this idea would've never consider returning.

If you have the means to take time off, then you should. Life shouldn’t be just living to work, take some time to enjoy new things and places.

Yes ma'am definitely take break..
Once you will be fresh after break than again you will njoy your work again..

And savings are future protection when you're not able to do work..

Don't spend... keep working...
