Background: Team environment in which one of the team member Adira
goes on vacation. Other team members are Aurav and Joe working on the project.
Vacation...va..ca..tion.. its vacatiooooooooonnnnnnnn!
Adira was so excited about her vacation to the national parks on the
west coast of United states of America.
On the other hand, Aurav being the hardworker was busy working and
getting anxious about the workshop with the supplier the week ahead
Like a humming bird, Adira just finished the work and left office to
board her flight.
Aurav looking at Joe sighed "Good times"
Aurav pulled it through the workshop with team member's support.
His high level of attention to details and excellent debugging skills
makes it hard for any supplier to defend himself.
Alas the supplier.
The following week Adira returned from vacation.
After settling down with work,
Adira being curious asked
Aurav "so When do you go on vacation?"
Aurav: I hardly go on vacations"
Adira : What"?
Aurav : Yes I do not go on vacations..
Initially i was saving
money so I couldnt afford a vacation for myself.
but now I never make it
a point to treat myself.
I never know what i
really miss by not going on vacation.
As one gets into professional life, he/she gets so engrossed with
work and career that they forget the outside world. but vacation is not just about going far away places or enjoying luxurious food and hotels,
its about leaving something one previously occupied
with.
it should rejuvenate the mind and body so that one feels enriched and
relaxed.
it also reminds that there is whole world out there which is so
beautiful.
Quite often, we are constantly thinking about the materialistic things
so that we can be happy.
but happiness is being able to accept yourself, smile from heart,
feeling the heat of the sun, enjoying the rain, feeling the nature, things that
sing the melody of the soul.
So
