Stress is a silent killer as I keep saying and judging from the kind of nation that we find ourselves, you will agree that the kind of work we do just to survive posses a lot of stress. But will you stop work ? No. You need to work and you also need to ensure that your physical wellbeing is on check to avoid breakdown. Because the very day you breakdown, your company will find a replacement and life goes on.
Therefore , balancing work life with physical wellbeing is one skill that everyone should master. It is not just a skill but a necessary one. I remember working in one hospitality fairm some years ago, I work 12 hours everyday and some days 14 hours. Apart from the physical stress the mental stress was much, I never had time for myself or any social activity especially days that I was in day shift. It was not funny , because my physical wellbeing was seriously affected. I had to quit the job for the sake of my sanity. But God blessed me with another job and I have always learn to balance my work life and physical wellbeing.
Over the years I been carefully sticking to these personal rules.
🖊️ I set clear work boudries ; no office work follows me back home , except on rare cases. I try as much as possible not to work overtime. If I am not okay with a task, I say it out.
🖊️ I ensure I avoid procrastination at all cost , so as to have good time for myself.
🖊️I listen to my body and do prompt medical treatment when need be.
🖊️ I take break at work , stroll around and also talk with friends.
🖊️ While at home I ensure that I listen to music, stroll around in the evening.
These and many more can help you balance work life and physical wellbeing. Because balancing work-life and physical wellbeing will enhance productivity in all ramifications and brings happiness.
