One “must” for this week
“The restorative power of small habits” by Francesca Giulia Mereu and Jennifer Jordan.
Energy is not just physical or psychological — it’s multi-dimensional.
We can identify five “energy batteries” that impact our well-being. Adopting a narrow focus on avoiding burnout ignores a crucial part of well-being: the more subtle but equally important daily maintenance of our energy through the challenges of leading and driving results.
Adopting small habits to recharge depleted batteries increases our daily resilience and can improve our overall well-being and effectiveness, even in crises.
