It is Labor Day weekend! People across America are taking advantage of the three day weekend to go on a relaxing vacation with families and friends. Unfortunately, these people only make up 9% of the population. Most Americans spend their Labor Day weekend doing house and yard work while over 20% go into work like any normal day. 

So why is it so hard for us, as Americans, to take a day to relax? Goal setting has become an important part of our lives and achieving those goals is the one of the highest priorities. Sadly, this can take away from relaxation which can result in physical and mental health issues so take some time this weekend to sit back, worry free!
