There are several everyday habits that can drain your energy and leave you feeling exhausted. Here are some of the most common habits that can drain your energy:
1. Taking things personally: When you attribute every interaction a person has with you to how they feel about you,
it's exhausting and more often than not it's not correct. Chances are, it's not about you, and you're not helping the situation by taking it personally.
2. Holding on to the past: The past is what it is, there isn't utility to holding grudges or being angry.
The only person you're impacting by holding on to the past is you. So let things go, if not for them, then for you.
3. Always checking email and social media: If someone has to wait a couple of hours for an email, then they wait. The world won't end, so relax.
4. Constantly worrying: Worrying does not solve the problem. If something is out of your hands, then it's out of your hands and there is no point in worrying about it.
If there is something you can do about it, then stop worrying and take action. Worrying is a waste of energy, focus on what you can control.
5. Negativity: If you are negative you are not part of the solution, you are part of the problem. You are not only draining your energy, but also your colleagues'
energy,the workplace's energy, your friends' and family's energy, etc. It is not productive, so try and focus on the positive.
