Integrate life around your professional pursuit. Most people try the other way around and fail.

For me, by being very strict about my boundaries. As soon as I close the laptop and leave the office, I tell myself I will not check anything related to work. I even turn off my phone if I must.

I personally don’t think self care is enough. You have to look at your work habits and think about sustainability. Then also, look at work recovery and how you can maximize the time spent not working. Self care isn’t optimized enough IMO!

@yannell_selman I appreciate your perspective! You're absolutely right that self-care alone might not be sufficient. Evaluating work habits, prioritizing sustainability, and maximizing work recovery time are essential aspects to optimize overall well-being. Thank you for sharing your insights!

Scheduling is something that can help you manage your all work! this could not always work because most of the time you have to go out of your track to resolve queries but it could work very affective in terms of your other works like social media scheduling through Social Champ or your your assignments from ChatGPT, this could help you save a lot of your time for yourself

Therapy is really important, if you can have someone that helps you through the hard times and helps you think about the way you think, this is really valuable.

Narrow it down to what basics you need to do to stay healthy and focused. For me it's rest, hydration and some form of activity. Build in time around your work to do this daily.

I prioritize self-care by setting clear boundaries, scheduling regular breaks, and engaging in activities that nourish my mind, body, and soul.

Prioritizing self-care can be a challenge, but here's what works for me: Schedule it: I literally add self-care time blocks in my calendar. Regular exercise: Even a quick 30-minute walk makes a difference. Mindfulness practice: Meditation or just 5 minutes of focused breathing can help.
I always try to listen to what my body is trying to tell me. If I'm feeling super tired I prioritize stopping for a few minutes before it becomes something more serious.
