Happens to everybody. Take a timeout. In the 12 years of my career, I have taken a total of 3 years off - and I am certain that in the 9 remaining years I achieved more and better things than what I would have had I worked the 12 years straight through.
It is like when you have been staring at a computer screen for long hours at a stretch trying to solve a problem. You stand up and move away from your desk and within a few moments all the answers and solutions storm through.
Your career and personal life are no different. Perhaps you are trying to hard to find the answers - so stand up and walk away for a little while.
- darwinGod 16y agoInteresting.. Could you elaborate at which stage in your career did you take 3 years off? How did you deal with family/relationships? So, if your kid comes along and says he does not want to go to school,what do you tell him?
- bl4k 16y agoI took it in 3 blocks of around a year each. After 2.5 years of working, after 5 years of working and then after around 7-8 years of working. Completely changed my life. I am a dropout, so if my own child doesn't want to go to school I would support him/her just as my parents did with me.
