A short motivational monologue by T. Harv Eker arguing that vacation should ‘vacate’ one’s current life — if the goal is true rejuvenation (replenish, reignite, alleviate stress) one should unplug from electronics for a period (one day, two days, or ideally a week) to reset like rebooting a computer.

Remember vacation. What does the word mean? It's for vacate. Vacate your current life. That's what it means, vacating your life. If you love your life and you love what you're doing, you don't need a vacation from your life, right? You need to. So what are you doing? Say, well, I want to go on vacation. The purpose is to have more fun and adventure than I'm doing right now. The normal stuff, great. If you're going to have more fun adventure, maybe you don't need to unplug for a week, do what you're doing. You do rafting, you do climbing, you do whatever you're doing hiking, you get go back and you do your emails and you take, take care of the business that you normally have to do it. No big deal, okay? It's not what your vacation, your objective was. It wasn't to unplug, it wasn't unwind, right? However, if you are going for vacation to vacate your current life, if you're going to replenish, to rejuvenate, to reignite yourself, to come from a new place, to clear your head, to shell out, to alleviate stress, different objective. You definitely want to unplug. And the only question is for how long? If you say for a whole week, okay? If you're able to do that in your business or your job or situation, do it for a week. It's fantastic. You'll, you'll reignite yourself, you'll recondition yourself, you'll reset yourself. It's just like a computer, you know, a computer, to reboot it normally it has to turn off, right? Doesn't you? Oh, it's on. I'm going to reboot it. I mean, I don't know that much about computers, but from what I know, you have to restart it, go on off and then on, right? So you reboot. So, you know, for some of you, it's. If you have the ability to do for a week, fantastic. Unplug for a week, it'll change your life. If you don't unplug for two days, that'll change your life. If you don't unplug for one full day, just get off the electronics. I promise you that will change your life.
