DOBROYE UTRO
🤖 The gist
In the past, work was all I thought about.
Even with my partner, every conversation seemed to revolve around our jobs. It was omnipresent and, therefore, an easy default topic.
I was going through life only focusing on the trail ahead, missing out on the breathtaking scenery around me.
To change this, I created a new rule—no work discussions after signing off. I thought it would open up new horizons and allow us to talk about the beauty of everyday life.
But I soon realized I had nothing else to say because my entire day was consumed by work.
I couldn't appreciate the roses because I never stopped to smell them.
That's when I challenged myself to go off the beaten path. After completing my daily tasks, I made a conscious effort to meet friends and engage in other activities.
This approach helped me take my mind off work and gave me new conversation topics at home. To my surprise, it also made me more productive when I returned to my tasks.
Every Friday, we take a moment to pause, look up, and admire the view. 👇🏽
