Energized at work

An interesting article about how to feel energized again at work.

"One of my clients, for example, recognized that strategic thinking was one of her core strengths: She loves thinking about the future and long-term opportunities. But as the pandemic stretched on, she was concerned that daily pressures left little space for this kind of thought; it felt like she was always fire-fighting small, urgent tasks. So she created a two-hour window for strategic planning in her weekly schedule — some to be spent alone and some with her team. Just these few hours have re-energized her: She reports an increase in joy at work not only in those strategic planning sessions but more generally across her week."
