When you’re busy with work and putting other people first, do you have a tendency to cut down on your sleep, grab whatever food is most convenient, and spend long hours sitting at your desk or in meetings?
But have you ever considered the impact this has on your ability to think, how you feel, how you interact with others, and your output and overall performance?
Sleep, nutrition, and exercise play an essential role in your energy level.
And you’ve probably already noticed that when your energy is low – you’re tired or sluggish – everything seems harder, you have less patience with other people, and you don’t get the same level of results in your work, right?
You might think, “But I’m so busy already. I don’t have time to sleep more or to think about what I eat or to exercise more.”
But let’s get clear here.
When you invest a little time in your wellbeing in the short term and make it an enjoyable part of your routine, that saves you time in the long run, improves your relationships, and boosts your performance, so you ultimately achieve more impact with less overall effort thanks to your better energy level.
