Busy vs Prioritized

A reflection from a recovering workaholic - a busy calendar means that you are doing too many things for too many people in inefficient ways by deprioritising your well-being and recovery.

A sane calendar is 90% repeatable and has your rest and recovery scheduled like all other meetings.

Trust me, the most cringe I felt is when I put in Lunch, Pilates, Family time, breakfast with team etc on my calendar. Because it dings in the right time, my trend line is getting better slowly. These days I have my lunch on time 4/7 days compared to past life.

Stop being busy. Start being prioritised.
