  • What ruins your day? And how can you overcome it?

    There's always any problem you need to solve. (Thank god) ----- As for me, my day is ruined when I wake up late, like after 7 am. 😅 The solution is pretty simple (setting an alarm clock) but is too drastic sometimes. Could anybody come up with any gentle method of waking up? ----- Let's take this discussion as a place where people complain 😀 about some things and you can inspire, and maybe you will come up with a possible product. 🙂

    Too much sleep. Wake up same time every day, use alarm if needed. Body gets used to waking at that time.

    @arslanaut Creating routine is crucial but everything depends on the day. Some days are more difficult than others if I sleep the same amount of time, the gained energy is not equal then.

    I've found that forcing myself to do something active in the morning (like a run, a long walk, a session at the gym, ...) REALLY improves my focus during the rest of the day. Initially, I refused to do it because I kept thinking "I could use this time for work instead, and be more productive", but I then realised it was the actual opposite.

    @gabriele_mazzola So for you, it is sport right? :) I think that I am the same because you prepared yourself with something hard :D

    @gabriele_mazzola I totally get where you're coming from. Starting my day with yoga is my thing, you know? It sets such a great vibe for the whole day, so pure and refreshing. But man, keeping up with it can be tough sometimes. I mean, there's that little voice saying, "Hey, get to work, start ticking off those tasks early!" because, let's face it, I'm all about that morning hustle.

    I set my alarm with a spotify birds chirping track so that I wake up a little more gently. It does help. And on the days I have to be at gym by 7am I wake up with my favorite dance track to get me going.

    @lisa_steingold1 is your dance track available publicly? 😅 Or if you have fave YouTube workouts, please share. I usually exercise like that.

    Nothing and no one can ruin my day, and nothing and no one should. I know it's hard, but I owe it to myself not to be affected by setbacks that can derail my mood 😊

    @ena_gluhakovic Fan of sarcasm :D Met too :) It is better to surround yourself with people that do not bring you down.
    @busmark_w_nika this is exactly what happened to me today. Woke up 1.5 hours late and was immediately pissed off.

    Unexpected technical issues ruin my day

    Great topic, Nika! For me, a day can be ruined when unexpected bugs or tech issues pop up right before a deadline. To overcome this, I try to maintain a proactive approach with thorough testing and a strong support system. Also, staying organized with a good project management tool helps a lot. As for waking up, I found that using a smart light that gradually increases brightness works wonders for a gentler wake-up! 😊

    @busmark_w_nika Depends on the mood, I have minimum 2 in the morning and then maybe another 1 or 2 throughout the day😉

    Waking up late can definitely throw off the day! Have you tried setting up a sunrise simulation alarm clock? It's like having a gentle nudge from nature to start your day right! 🌅 #RiseAndShineTechStyle

    Unproductive meetings ruin my day by wasting time and causing frustration. I ensure every meeting has a clear agenda, defined objectives and only necessary participants. By implementing these hacks ultimately improves my overall day.
