As a multifamily leader, it can be challenging to maintain a healthy work-life balance, especially in times of stress and uncertainty.
While it’s important to acknowledge and address stress, I will encourage you to develop coping strategies to help you manage it is also crucial.
Here are a few tips I use to shrug off stress and maintain my well-being:
- Practice mindfulness and self-care. I take time each morning to meditate. I use Sam Harris’ Waking Up App.
- Maintain a healthy lifestyle. Eating nutritious food, getting enough sleep, and staying hydrated can improve your physical and mental well-being. Set good intentions and habits in this area of your life – it matters immensely.
- Connect with others. Having a support system is essential in managing stress. Contact friends, family, or colleagues for support and engage in activities that unite people. This is hard work, and you must be intentional.
- Seek professional help if necessary. Don’t hesitate to seek a mental health professional if stress becomes overwhelming. They can help you develop coping strategies and provide support during difficult times. I can’t stress this point enough. Asking for help is not a sign of weakness but rather a strength.
