In the last year, have you felt stressed, burnt out, or exhausted? You’re not alone. Burnout levels are on the increase across professions, and a Gallup poll shows that more than 70% of the Americans feel disengaged at work. In our pursuit of success, we are wearing ourselves out. But everyone seems to be moving at the same alarming speed. Our health and well-being suffers, but it feels like there simply is no choice and no alternative: We just have to keep going. However, research shows that we have it all wrong. We have the misconception that, in order to be successful, we have to postpone our happiness and well- being.
Never stop accomplishing. Stay continuously focused on ge􏰀ing things done. To achieve more and stay competitive, you’ve got to move quickly from one to-do to another, always keeping an eye on what’s next. Stress is inevitable if you want success. Living in overdrive is the inescapable byproduct of a fast-paced life. Adrenaline (and caffeine) are necessary to get the job done. Persevere at all costs. Despite your fatigue, you have to keep going. Self-criticism is key to self-improvement. These myths reflect our current cultural view of what it takes to be successful. Yet they are wrong. Hundreds of studies suggest that if you spend more time actually taking care of yourself and being happy, you will end up more successful than you ever knew possible.
Instead of always focusing on the future and the next to-do, stay present. Research shows that when our mind is constantly in the future, not only are we less happy, but we're also far less productive and focused. Moreover, we fail to connect with others. Whether colleagues, employees, or clients, those human connections are essential to success. Instead of always operating in high-adrenaline mode, build your resilience. More than 80% of doctors' visits result from stress, but we all believe we can't have success without stress. Breathing exercises and other ways to calm your nervous system help make you more resilient to stress.
Instead of persevering at all costs, manage your energy. Western societies value high- intensity emotions like excitement. The problem is that both excitement and stress exhaust our physiology. Instead of engaging in states of mind that exhaust you, learn to manage your stamina by remaining calm and centered. Research shows that taking time off from work to be unfocused promotes creativity and insight. Instead of sticking only to your strengths and being self-critical, step outside your niche and be good to yourself. Express compassion for those around you, and create supportive relationships with coworkers, boss, and employees. That will dramatically increase their loyalty and commitment to you, improving everyone's productivity and performance.
