Finding Balance: Play, Wonder, and Productivity

Dear Subscribers,

In today’s fast-paced world, finding a balance between work and personal life can be a challenge. That’s why we’re here to provide you with some uplifting tips to help you achieve that balance and improve your overall well-being.

In Leo Babauta’s email, “Deepening Into Play & Wonder (plus: Dealing with Anxiety)”, he invites us to consider incorporating more play and wonder into our daily lives. He suggests that adding a sense of play and wonder can lead to a more joyful, curious, and adventurous life. We could see each day as a big playground, ready to be explored. Leo invites us to consider joining a retreat to explore play and wonder in the mountains, in connection with nature and with ourselves. This retreat could be a great opportunity to take a break from the daily grind and reconnect with our inner sense of joy and wonder.

On the work front, Hailey Mensik’s email, “This company’s HR leadership credits its corporate university program for high retentions”, discusses how some employers are making work more engaging and educational, similar to the school environment. This approach is helping to keep staff engaged and advancing in their roles, ultimately leading to higher retention rates. It’s essential to find ways to make work more fulfilling and meaningful, and this approach could be a great inspiration for companies looking to improve their work environment.

In “Productivity #289 – Use a Work Journal for Focus” by submissions@techproductivity.co, the email discusses the use of a work journal to recover focus faster and clarify our thoughts. This method can be a great tool for maintaining a balanced and productive work life. By keeping a work journal, we can track our progress, set goals, and reflect on our achievements, ultimately leading to improved productivity and work-life balance.
