How do you balance life and work?

by
I often find myself pushed forward by various challenges. When time is tight and work pressure is intense, do you have any good work-life balance suggestions?

One advice that I got a few years back for this was to NEVER compromise on good food, good sleep, and the value of drinking enough water daily. Now I'm starting to realize it's not ONE advice, it's THREE 🤣

@alishahlakhani Agreed with you, Ali! Sleep well, eat well, keep your mind strong and healthy are indeed important!

I don't track my work-life balance. If I have energy, I work. If I want to have some rest - I take a break. If I feel that I don't have energy to work more than 1-2 days, I understand that I need to change place/picture Startup always need founders to be more engaged. Working till exact time is not good for startups. Better to track your mood, not working schedule

@anna_kasumova Follow the flow and find the tempo of our own life!

In short, you must be consistent and create basic to-do lists for your agenda. When it's not determined, you cannot track your progress, and, as a consequence, you can't set limits between work and life. Well, you can also sleep less so that your family sees you long enough and your work is done 😁

@anatoly5ms Truly! I like the concept of listing out 10 tasks everyday and only execute 20% of them! Thanks for your sharing!

Catch up with friends or old friends at least once or twice a week

I use a calendar and I time block. Time blocking is what works best for me!

@lysten_inc Setting limits and boundaries are so important!

I take some me-time on Sundays to prepare myself for the week. This includes meal preps, cleaning, skincare, and meditation. And during the work day, I make sure to spend at least an hour in the gym, and set boundaries. What happens during 9-5 stays during 9-5.

@priyankapahari Setting boundaries!! It's hard for me though, but I guess it's a lesson I need to learn!

I try to tune into the Calm app for short breaks of relaxation

@kanupriya_chhabra1 Thanks for sharing! I actually just begin to practice meditation for 10min everyday; it's not easy though~

Replaced useless activity's with work activity's! For example instead of watching endlessly Instagram reels I go on Product Hunt or Linked In.

@vladislavs_sprengels Focus is the key!!
