''The art of relaxing is part of the art of working.''
John Steinbeck (1902-1968), US author

Our professional lives are becoming increasingly varied. That is nice indeed but it also brings a lot of unrest with it. Do this here and finish that there, send this off, schedule, coordinate and organize everything.
And then suddenly the training plan is supposed to be ready to go by tomorrow.

The result of all this is stress. Our competences in dealing with stressful situations are demanded. And that in a matter of seconds. My tip goes completely along with Steinbeck’s philosophy:  downshift, catch your breath and then assign new priorities to all of your tasks.


With my best regards

Yours
