Take your rest. If you donโt, it will catch up with you later in the future.

I try to. It depends on the level of illness.

@mansi_trivedi1 I feel it the same way. The thing is that I work also when I am ill (and not only for living but work and exercise physically... like complete my workouts). Lol.
Depending how much Iโm passionate about this work :)

@justismail What type of work makes you be active despite of illness? :-D

If you have a launch, you would have to!
Yes, I try to sleep in and move non urgent tasks to a few days out to give space for proper rest. However, sometimes a job will come up and I've got to show up too and support my team. ๐ฅฒ Start up life!

@jacob_boston oh, that encouragement from the team is so kind of you. You are the CEO one would wish for.
Oh thank you! Getting here has been a journey. I know that I am only as good as my team, and creating a workspace that recognizes that it one of my prioritizes. I will remember your kind words as things pick up for us. ๐ @busmark_w_nika
No! I don't think anyone should! The brain needs a lot of energy. And if you are ill, you are most probably out of energy. As we were launching today, I made sure I ate well for the last 7 days so I don't get ill. Btw, please support us guys ๐
Yes and no.

@kiakamgar when yes and when no (to work during the illness)?
Generally yes but remote :)
Hahaha yes ๐๐ฅ I am sick (cold) right now and I am working.
Overall, yes.
I may take an extra break or 2 though. With being able to work from a laptop, why not?
yes because work is very important
I do not work when I am ill.
At home, yes:) How about yourself?
no i am very lazy
no because health is very important
I will not. Work and life should be balance and especially when you are ill

@istiakahmad Lucifer was recommended to me by my friend. Honestly, I am more into The Walking Dead series. ๐งโโ๏ธ๐

@busmark_w_nika Cool, Lucifer gets boring at times but you can have fun watching this. And about walking dead, havent watched it though ๐
, i think i should because the Zombie Apocalypse is a real thing coming to the world anyway, sooner or later.. ๐
In such situations I just focus on operative tasks to keep things going. What isn't on fire, has to wait. I usually try to get 2 days of mostly rest, teas and zinc and then get back to the process. Many times I tried to "push through it" and it caught up with me in much worse way later.
When working remote, usually yes. But I always let my team know that I might be slow to respond. Gotta stay transparent :)

@stephanie_hubbard this is a good approach. Team should know that something is happening. Because when I am ill, my performance can change.
