MBA
Sometimes even for the most material girls and boys it is more … profitable in terms of mental health to take a year off to do an MBA.
I know that is sounds really weird for those who are super focused and career-oriented, still I believe that it is essential to understand the benefits of the MBA.

First of all, it is Network - so choose the Business School wisely. Secondly, somethings you just need to refresh your brain with the new people, new knowledge and new experiences. So, why not?
Finally, MBA always implies a pay raise and a choice…whether you stay with a company or not.

P.S. some companies pay for the MBA for their employees, so you will have kind of a decision to make before you apply for it.
