HMBT #258: Rest and Digest

I am joined by Lawrence Berger, Sales Trainer, Speaker, Author, Poet, Podcast Guest, and Performance Coach.

In a year where the pandemic has tired us out, mentally and physically, we need to look at ways to stay refreshed and focused.

To stay focused, we all need rest. Sleep is important. Too many entrepreneurs feel like they have to work 18 or more hours a day. You will not be productive if your mind is not focused. 

We have all heard of Fight or Flight, but Lawrence talks about Rest and Digest and how it affects us a humans. Get rest and also digest what you you are doing, relating to focus. 

We then move to the topic of deep work. You need to focus on what you are working on with no introductions for a certain period of time, say 20 minutes, then take a 10 minute break. It will help you focus on your work and also produce quality work, helping you meet your goals. 

Also, make sure that you budget come time in for fun and breaks. Without fun, you can burn out. Go and block some time off on your calendar for breaks. Also make sure to plan some fun in your life.

Lawrence says, in order to get what you want done in life, you need to be alive to do it. He goes on to use the acronym F.U.N., which stands for Forget Unhappiness Now. Life is meant to be fun and enjoyable. Take PTO and mental stress days in the new year.

Lawrence is a success coach and he helps others realize their dreams. He can help you emphasis your talents and passion to be successful in 2021!
