How To Beat The Work Blues!

How to beat them.

- I.M. Soni

Working women suffer from blues. It is already two hours in office, but they have not done much. They do try to focus their minds on what they must do, but the mind, like a fatigued horse, does not quicken the pace. They may take refuge in “I am very unwell”, and may even leave the office.

Once in office, you try your best to put your mind on the spot, but it goes astray. You try hard; gulp a cup of strong coffee. It does not work because it is work blues you are fighting, not bad mood!

Sometimes, the atmosphere in the office puts you off. The colleague sitting next to you makes a loaded remark about your make-up and dress. This puts you in the low, which affects your performance. This may even spill over to the next day.

You drag your feet to work. Work becomes drudgery.

As a result, the more you think, the more you sink in the blues. Give yourself an emotional and mental jerk, think yourself out of the rut.

What steps can you take to cope with work blues?

Pushing yourself into a deadly routine will bring in deadly results. It impedes performance and affects health. The husband becomes a nag because he finds you a laggard in love. Children find you wanting in showering affection.
