I sit with Alex Soojung-Kim Pang Author of SHORTER, REST and THE DISTRACTION ADDICTION. He is on a global movement to shorten working hours, while improving productivity & profitability.
We discuss about his company called Strategy and Rest and what that means.
He shares research from his books and ways for you to serve kindness to yourself and others. We discuss boundaries and how saying 'No' can help you to take good quality rest so that you can also do good quality work.
We talk about the value of routines and how this can help you to rest. Creating a routine that works for you. This can be difficult in the beginning, it can take a couple of weeks for you to get used to a new routine. In the long run it can help you to work on what matters to you and take care of your wellbeing. What is important to you may not be so important to someone else. You need to protect your time, when you feel energised to do your work in a focused way. We discuss 90 minute slots throughout the day of focused work, followed by deliberate rest.
