Description

Do you find yourself overworking most of the time? Has overworking become an addiction for you? Listen in as I share my insights on this subject.
Visit https://www.bodyshotperformance.com/topic/podcasts/ for the complete show notes of every podcast episode.

Topics Discussed in this Episode:


How overwork impacts your life and your relationships


Applauding the people who work hard versus applauding those who have a more healthy, balanced lifestyle


Changing your role models and the people you look up to



Key Takeaways:


Overwork could be seen as a form of self-abuse in the way we might consider alcohol, overeating, or undereating as abuse to self and detrimental behaviour.


Overwork can affect your family in a way that drinking too much alcohol does.


Overwork also affects your relationship with friends and impact, your expression of values.


Overwork impacts the time you get to spend on your hobbies and your ability to practice heartfulness.



Action Steps:


Take the Health IQ test


Pick one thing this week that you’re going to do a little differently to try and step back from overworking or reverse your overworking tendency.



Leanne said:
“We tend to reward or even applaud people that really put a shift on a consistent basis… but I wonder if we’re doing them a disservice and doing society in general a disservice by applauding people for this.”
“When I changed my role models and the people I looked up to, I changed the expectations I had of myself around work.”
