Are You Sacrificing Your Health For Work?

2 Mins read

Work is an integral part of our lives but if we make it the only thing in our lives, a lot of things take the back seat. While close friends and family get distanced, your health is the most affected by it.

You all need to work to support ourselves and our families at some point in time. It is important that you take responsibility for yourself and become independent. While you take work seriously, you may not realise you may be spending personal time. The lack of personal time is not only bad for your relationships but it can also affect your health. You need to maintain a work-life balance in order to have a healthy life.

How can you identify if your work is affecting your health?

1. You feel stressed.

Work at any organisation can be stressful. You invest a lot of your mind and thoughts rather than physical workout. You are not only sacrificing your physical health but even your mental wellness is hampered.

You may be under stress and you need to detox your mind as well as your body.

2. You have relationship issues.

You have been working overtime and haven’t been able to spend enough time with family. This had led to the relationship with family and friends become a bit distant. Even when you are with them you are anxious about work.

You need to make time for yourself and your closed ones. Don’t let work create differences.

3. You bring unfinished work home.

You have been working really hard at work and there is no difference between your work time and leisure time. As your workload increases, you bring your work home. Work occupies all your time, leaving no time for yourself.

You need to manage your appropriately. Don’t let work occupy your entire day.

4. You always feel tired.

Due to stress, work pressure, you may always feel stressed. This can lead to making you feel tired. Your performance at work also is going down on the graph.

It’s time you take up your health seriously. You need to look after yourself.

5. You are dominated by negative thoughts.

As your performance is not up to the mark you tend to feel low. Negative thoughts are charged up and you feel you are not worthy of your role. With the relationship issues, imbalance of work and life you tend to feel negative.

It’s good to work hard and be responsible but don’t let your work become the only part of your life. Spend enough time on yourself. Do physical activities, even meditation is a good for the body as well as the mind. Try some de-stressing techniques  and keep yourself healthy from the mind as well as the body.
