This is #12 out of 25 Tips to Become More Productive and Happy at Work.
Pace Yourself, Especially on Bad Days. Go slow. Don’t be in a hurry. Just take one thing at a time and keep moving forward. If you’re having a really low day, you might even want to take care of yourself by playing hooky !
I must respectfully disagree with this advice. Sometimes you SHOULD be in a hurry - but being in a hurry with your actions or thoughts does not necessarily require you to be in a hurry with your emotions. You can cultivate a sense of calm and joy within yourself even when you’re pressed for time, if you make a conscious, repeated attempt to do so.
