As I continue to feel drained of energy every night, I wonder if I'm managing my time well and keeping that delicate balance of work and life well adjusted. Its not the work/life balance that's the issue, it's my life is currently a lot of work. My husband and I are in the process of selling and buying real estate. If you've done this before, you know this takes a lot of energy! Every day I'm managing communication with bankers, Realtors and my husband, coordinating appointments and next action items, and let's not forget the paperwork.
My best energy is in the morning. By 1pm, it starts dipping and by 3pm, I want to take a nap. After slugging through the afternoon, I head home to cook, work on real estate tasks and/or spend time with the hubby or friends. I keep my energy up by working out frequently and eating well. but I can't get over that afternoon and evening slug time. I want to have more energy in the afternoon and evening, but can't figure out how to get it. What else can I do? What re-energizes you during your low times?
I find that if I drink COLD water in the afternoon--two glasses or so, it reenergizes me. Part of the challenge is getting up from my desk to get it!
