The books seems interesting, thanks for sharing
Edit: watched it, seems to be Korean or American. As a European, while the pressure for productivity is still there, being able to enjoy your life, including days off and vacation, is still a thing.

A community about happy living. Thoughts and praxis about long-term wellbeing, contentment, and personal fulfillment.
A place to post profound, preferably long-form thoughts and discussions about such concepts which might not easily fit in other communities.
Probably will remain just a community for the admin to post stuff they found interesting, but feel free to post some stuff you find that matches or start discussions.
Rules
- No memes
- No toxic "wholesome" content.
- No smug, "dunking" or "better than thou" posts about others. (Community is meant to focus on personal improvement and fulfillment, not negativity and how we're doing it better.)
- No woo-woo, spiritualism and religion. (Community is not about spiritualism and new age mumbo-jumbo and things like "The Secret". It's a purely materialistic and secular space.)

The point is that even many Europeans use vacation just to be more productive later instead of just enjoying life. It's a corruption of leisure time.
If I have some time, I'll try to look up some stats on that. From anecdotal evidence around me, once people reach 30-35, they start considering work as just work, and focus their priorities to family and private time.
In the Netherlands for instance it's quite usual for fathers to switch to 4 days a week once they have children.
