When I was working in the corporate world, it never failed that there would come a time where I would feel so overwhelmed that I had a hard time detaching my current reality from a compulsion that I needed to resign.  My supervisor, who was much more prepared for this than I was, would simply tell me to take a day off.  When I would return to work I would feel refreshed and would be able to work another few months before my next spell.

What I learned from this was the importance of taking a break.  Eventually I learned to give myself time when I felt myself getting overwhelmed.  Many employees are undergoing stressors that they are not even aware of.  These stressors negatively affect their well-being, performance, and environment.   By circumventing these stressors, employers can have happier and more productive employees that enjoy work, develop more skills, and stick around longer.
