@sanjay_somashekar Thanks, I was mostly working on my UI design book. Definitely a labour of love over the last 1.5 years - https://www.practical-ui.com
@sharon_paunan sounds like a perfect combination of a plan, have a great time!
good discussion. It's just really more on focus and fully utilizing the calendar and reminder apps haha.. happy year end folks!
well for three-ish days I won't be, intentionally taking some time off and then from there I will do the same, mark off some simple tasks that will make 2023 easier to hit my goals
Close my eyes
Think about the tasks that are pending
Panic
Motivation 100%
@harish_somasundar sounds like a plan! Do focus on your mental health while you work hard, happy holidays!
@pawelkadysz my plan was to take off sometime during January, was feeling focussed to work during the holidays. Wanted to learn from folks who are keeping themselves productive at this time.
During this holiday season, I plan on keeping myself productive and motivated by setting specific goals for myself and breaking them down into smaller, more manageable tasks. This way, I can stay focused on what I need to accomplish and not get overwhelmed.
I also try to make time for things that bring me joy and relaxation, like taking a walk outside, practicing mindfulness, or spending time with loved ones. These activities help to keep me balanced and energized, and make it easier for me to stay motivated to get things done.
Another strategy that has been helpful for me is setting aside dedicated time for work and taking breaks in between to rest and recharge. This helps me to stay focused and avoid burnout, which is especially important during the busy holiday season.
Overall, I find that the key to staying productive and motivated during the holidays is to find a healthy balance between work and rest, and to make time for the things that bring me joy and fulfillment. So, this holiday season, I plan on taking care of myself and being mindful of my own needs as I work towards my goals.
@hemantwarier thanks for taking the time out to explain your plan to keep yourself productive and motivated during this holiday season. All of this makes sense hope you achieve your goals and enjoy your holidays as well!
Holiday - it's the best time to thinking what you really want or need.. it's your time) if you know your personal priorities, you still more productive and motivating for longer time
@mary_petrykina I totally agree with this perspective and I feel it is important to focus on our personal priorities, work towards achieving them.
Why should I keep working efficiency during the holidays? The holidays are for relaxation
By setting achievable goals and breaking them up into smaller pieces. I also plan on setting aside a few hours each day to focus on my goals and staying organized with a to-do list. Additionally, I plan on taking plenty of breaks and rewarding myself for completing tasks.
A lot of planning and organization, and some Christmas sweets next to my desk :D
@taishiling I don't have a practice like this, but would love to start doing something similar. Have a great holidays!
I just wanna take some time off , go home , meet my folks and spend the time with them. After the initial couple of days doing the above, I want to plan on setting goals to improve my UI designing skills.
@akash_kumar26 sounds like a great plan, all the best! Have a great time with your family, and a great vacation!
