Don’t kill your lunch break because of COVID-19 — use it to advance your career
The choice is yours … but make lunch count
Planning is key — or else you’ll get bored easily and be tempted to get back to work as soon as possible.
So here’s how to make the most of your break and how to use this time to advance your career.
Have you ever wondered whether you’d enjoy running or pilates? Well, now’s the time to find out.
The likelihood is that you’re probably spending more time sitting down (because, well, your commute is probably a thing of thepast) so there’s never been a better time to getmovingand why not have fun while you do.
Think about what kind of exercise you enjoy and try and find online classes. You don’t even have to spend, you can find plenty of freeexerciseandstretchingroutinesonline. If you go down this route, try and watch them on a differentdevice, such as yoursmartphone, to make sure you reduce work-related screen time.
If classes aren’t your thing, create your own workout routine. Personally, I’m a big fan of thesanity squat. This way, you can get your daily exercise done and also get thoseendorphinsgoing, meaning you’ll return to feeling happier and refreshed — and be way more productive.
Have you ever stopped to think about how much time house and life admin steals away from you? No, me neither, but I guarantee it’s (probably) a lot.
So, even though this might sound weird, you should totally consider taking care of household chores during your lunch break.
By getting this out of the way at lunch, it means you’ll be able to focus on work during working hours.
I mean, I know I’ve certainly been distracted by laundry whileworking from home.
