From reading the comments a lot of people take a really negative spin on this for some reason. I only see it as trying to explain that if you rely on vacations alone then you could still be overworked and stressed. They only dim the symptom but does not cure the disease. If you are overworked and stressed a vacation might help in the short run but if you go back into the same routines, then of course you&#x27;ll end back where you were before taking the vacation.<p>What they do advise instead is working on the disease itself and try to manage your day-to-day better instead of ONLY relying on annual holidays. They aren&#x27;t saying you shouldn&#x27;t take holidays only that they won&#x27;t cure all your stress permanently.<p>I think this is good advice. Not groundbreaking or new knowledge, but still - good advice!
