Journalling has helped me a lot in this journey irrespective of good days and bad days. The daily self introspection on why I am feeling what I am feeling and how can I reframe things in my mind to feel differently about the same situation has helped me become better bit by bit.

These things help me - Coffee - A small walk outside - Exploring other products on PH What works for you @brenkinfa ?

@daxeelsoni Nice! Coffee and spontaneous walks outside are also big for me. Another one is a 10 - 30 min light gaming session.

For me it’s fully accepting β€œbreak time” - doesn’t matter if it’s sudoku or a hike or a movie or tinkering - it’s accepting that at any given time I may need to focus on ME. Since basically we spend 99% of our time focusing on others, this is my method of self-care.

@jtoeman That's so true! Self-care shouldn't ever be neglected. Getting to that frame of mind took me a long time to learn!

Well, Coffee, Celcius, and Ambition aka Mental Illness. But really I drink a ton of caffeine.

@jake_strack First time I heard about that energy drink! I used to do other kinds of energy drinks as well - but yeah, the caffeine caught up to me.

Coffee and working out. Some of my best ideas come at the gym

@kyle_desana Oh, definitely! For me (and I'm sure a lot of others), doing something outside of my usual work routine tends to get those subconscious, creative juices flowing.

Everything altogether. Trying to squeeze in what I love doing in between sports, park walks, and board games.

Don't underestimate the power of power naps (now I sound like an old man)

- Prioritizing good sleep (right amount and quality), - Enough micronutrients. - Celebrating milestones and successes with my team - Meeting fellow founders (everyone's in the same boat and all have similar problems, it helps grounding me)
