When you just don’t feel like working

Big Takeaways

  • There are some days when you just don’t feel productive and that’s okay. 
  • It’s not selfish to take care of yourself.
  • On the days when you feel low energy, focus on those activities that feed you rather than deplete you.
  • Sometimes even principals need a nap.
  • We need to start showing ourselves a little more grace.
Everyone has those days where you just don’t have the energy and the mental bandwidth you normally have. The way we were trained as leaders teaches us that we need to gut it through during those days. But as Builders, we know that we need to show ourselves grace. Today, I’m sharing 4 ways I get through those tough “Blah” days and still accomplish the most important work #LikeABuilder.

Check out these highlights:
  • Why it’s even more important to take care of yourself physically during a “blah” day.
  • How I make sure I get the most important work done even when I’m not feeling my best.
  • The strategy I learned in high school that helps me complete tough tasks even when I am not motivated.
  • My secret nap location.
  • Why it’s important to show yourself some grace on those tough days.
