Many people today don't tend to listen to themselves. They are so busy working, going without stopping, that they forget to take time for themselves. And that is why we get stuck. We get tired and lack energy.
This is
exactly the reason why Paul Van Den Bosch wrote his book
"Egopreneur". "Ego" is Latin for 'I' or 'me'. In our
society, words with "ego" have a negative connotation (a big ego,
egocentric, egoism,…), but Paul wants us to focus on our 'me' in a positive
way.
An
egopreneur takes care of himself/herself. You can only take care of others,
when you take care of yourself first of all. If you look after yourself, you'll
recuperate faster, are less tired and are able to step out of your comfort
zone.
You do this by focusing on three pillars:
Get enough sleep: No less than 8 hours of sleep. It has been proven to drastically reduce the chance of making mistakes or getting injured.
Exercise: You don't need to start a sport or start training intensively. You only need to move more. If you move, walk or exercise 10 minutes, three times a day, your body can deal with the stress you encounter.
Eat healthy: Skip the refined sugars and the high calorie intake, and you'll have less energy dips and a better focus.
