What’s #Flourishing Now? Boost your performance by 13% by doing nothing?

What’s #Flourishing Now? High-performers and high-achievers understand the power of active recovery is necessary to maintain their energy and show up well. Optimizing our well-being includes rest. For those with busy schedules it’s easy to justify minimizing sleep but you don’t really gain an hour of work by doing so. The law of diminishing returns explains that as you keep adding more of one input while keeping all other inputs fixed, the additional output produced by each new unit of that input will eventually decrease.

In life, having no rest is like having no breaks between lifting weights at the gym. The rest between sets not only allows you to optimize your performance but lift more. With no breaks in our lives our productivity plummets. Our ability to creatively problem-solve is greatly reduced. You make more mistakes and tasks take longer to complete.

Research shows that proper rest increases your performance by 13%! So, take that walk, nap, or vacation you have been putting off. #humanflourishing #flourishinglife #inspiration motivation
