Daily lethargy persisted until I became aware that these seven routines, sapping my energy levels, were dictating my entire day
In the fast-paced world we live in, it's essential to find a balance between work and personal life. Here are some insights that can help you navigate this balance more effectively.
Firstly, it's important to understand that happiness is not solely an individual's responsibility. Protecting one's time is key to showing up fully when committing to things. This means saying 'no' when necessary, to ensure you have the energy and resources to say 'yes' when it truly matters.
Late-night scrolling on phones can have a detrimental effect on sleep quality. If you find yourself struggling with insomnia, consider putting your phone away before bedtime. The blue light emitted from screens can disrupt melatonin production, affecting your sleep.
Overcommitting oneself can lead to neglecting one's own energy and well-being. It's crucial to remember that saying 'no' is just as important as saying 'yes'. Ignoring emotions can drain energy just as much as overworking or eating unhealthily.
Working smarter, not longer, is a key principle for increasing productivity and preventing feelings of constant depletion. Fighting oneself drains energy and prevents the discovery of a reservoir of strength, creativity, and resilience.
A Brigham Young University study found that employees who don't get movement during the day are 96% more likely to suffer drops in productivity. Taking regular breaks for walking, stretching, or lifting can boost focus and shake off a heavy, drained feeling.
Multitasking can reduce efficiency by up to 40%. Focusing on one task at a time in focused blocks can improve productivity and make the brain feel calmer.
Another study, this time from Stanford, found that productivity plummets once you pass 55 hours a week. Working more than this does not necessarily increase productivity.
Employees with poor diets were 66% more likely to report losing productivity at work, according to a Brigham Young University study. Choosing convenience over healthy foods can lead to decreased productivity.
Plugging your phone in another room at night can improve the quality of your sleep. The blue light from phones can block melatonin production, affecting sleep quality.
Age is just a number, and if you can do 10 things without help, it's proof that this is true. Emotionally mature people end relationships without causing unnecessary pain.
Finally, people who are deeply connected to nature often have soulful traits such as empathy, compassion, and resilience. The book "Laughing in the Face of Chaos," which inspired Lachlan Brown towards an inner transformation, was written by Rudá Iandê.
By implementing these strategies, you can lead a more balanced, productive, and fulfilling life.
