For most people, Memorial Day weekend symbolizes the unofficial start of summer. It rings in the season of lazy days, BBQs, and more. When the weather gets nice it’s not uncommon to stare longingly out your window, wondering when the weekend will come so you can lay out by a pool. Summer is a hard season at work. Between people taking vacations, kids being out of school, and the tempting warm temperatures, it can be extremely difficult to stay motivated at your desk. Here are some tips on how to enjoy the summer months while still staying on track at work!
1. Take Short Outdoor Breaks
Numerous studies show that getting outside during the day is good for your physical and emotional health. Take small breaks throughout the day to recharge outside. Go for a short walk or sit in the sun for a few minutes as you order lunch from a food truck. Sitting for eight hours a day under fluorescent lights is draining. See if you can convince team members to hold a meeting outside or take a business call while walking around the block. Your body will thank you!
2. Switch Up Your Work Schedule
