As you know, modern people of working age often spend more time at work, rather than at home. But even if this is not so, then the attitude to the field of activity still affects the quality of family life and mood. Let's look at what exactly affects a person’s performance, how to increase it and avoid troubles.
Lifestyle
Each person has his own lifestyle: someone leads a healthy one, and someone likes a sedentary one with bad habits. It would seem, what does he have to do with work? Actually direct. Imagine that a person does not move much, after work almost until the morning he sits at computer games, drinking beer. Will he be awake, will he be able to work actively during the day after a sleepless night? Probably not. That is, the sleep mode, when a person goes to bed and at what time he gets up, can be attributed to the lifestyle.
Also, various traditions belong to the lifestyle. For example, on weekends or after work, walks or outdoor games in the open air, skiing or cycling are mandatory.
The person’s ability to work is also affected by his attitude towards people around him, especially family members and relatives. If a quarrel with a loved one suddenly occurs, the work will probably not be very productive.
Be sure to affect the performance and how we spend our free time, are there any interesting activities, hobbies. In addition, favorite things that increase the incentive not so much for the upcoming work, but for life in general, contribute to the quality of the duties performed.
Health and well-being
Almost everyone knows that feeling unwell interferes with any job. In this case, it is better to take a good rest and relax at home. If it’s completely bad, then go to the doctor.
As for chronic fatigue, spoiled health, you need to take care of yourself outside working hours, and visit a competent specialist. After all, human health and performance are closely interconnected.
Probably everyone heard the term “vitamin deficiency” - a deficiency of vitamins and minerals in the body always leads to a decrease in mental and physical activity.
A sedentary lifestyle quickly leads to fatigue and irritation, and regular exercise, walking, and even dancing restore overall well-being.
Sleep quality
Human performance also depends on sleep. What is it like with you? A good full sleep guarantees normal work. Therefore, it is advisable to determine the mode of sleep and wakefulness. But if the work schedule is shiftable or daily, sliding, then you have to adapt to the work.
In addition, thoughts, events that occurred on the same day or in the evening strongly influence sleep. Therefore, it is recommended to put up with loved ones before going to bed, leave all the problems for another time, to give the brain and heart, soul and rest.
Insomnia and some diseases often prevent sleep. All this leads to apathy and to a decrease in labor activity. Therefore, this problem should be resolved with a doctor or psychotherapist (depending on the reason for the lack of sleep).
With rare exceptions, it also happens that a person who has not slept for almost a day continues to stay awake. If you do not want to sleep, then you can work to then go to bed with a calm soul.
Schedule
Many areas and professions cannot do without a specific work schedule:
- Weekdays;
- day;
- 2/2, 3/3, etc .;
- sliding.
Workers with an unstable schedule are advised to pay attention to their own bodies: if you really want to sleep while relaxing at home, it is better to make out the bed and lie down. The body signal should not be ignored, since then unpleasant symptoms can occur that will turn into a chronic form: lack of sleep, fatigue, insomnia, nervousness. The person who has slept is ready for work, but on condition that the dream was healthy.
The influence of biological rhythms on human performance is very large. Often, failures in the mode lead not only to fatigue and exhaustion, but to serious illnesses. Therefore, representatives of some professions have to visit many doctors, that is, undergo a medical commission. Only healthy people are taken to daily work and 12-hour shifts with harmful working conditions.
Now it is no secret that an interruption in the biological rhythm leads to a change in the composition of blood for the worse, blood pressure indicators change, and the heartbeat increases.
Working conditions
The next factor in human performance is working conditions. First of all, it concerns lighting, noise, microclimate. It is not possible to work where normal conditions are not respected.
Therefore, when applying for a job, the employer should be asked to show under what conditions the work will take place, what needs to be done.
Routine and monotonous work quickly leads to apathy and fatigue. If you can switch to something else or just leave the workplace for a few minutes, then be sure to do it. For example, you are a dispatcher, a selector is on your desk. You hear it from any corner of the room. You have the opportunity to get out of the chair and do some exercises. Then the work will go more actively and the mood will appear. The same applies to other workers with a sedentary profession.
Heat or vice versa cold should be excluded by the management of the enterprise. Conditions must be created in accordance with sanitary standards.
Time of day and seasonality
Agree, it is more difficult to work in the evening and at night. Although in our time, people are divided into "owls" and "larks." Therefore, of course, it’s more convenient for someone to work at night, and for someone, work is good in the morning. But the highest human performance still falls on the first half of the day, daylight hours.
In addition, in winter, working capacity is reduced due to the fact that the day is shorter and the night is longer. In spring and autumn, each of us is depressed because of a change in climate, a sharp change in weather and a decrease in immunity. Therefore, it is better to prevent colds and vitamin deficiencies in February and August.
In the summer, everyone wants a vacation on the sea. Nevertheless, it will be comfortable to work when there is no heat.
Nutrition
The state of health depends on what we eat. You must admit that eating chips and burgers every day instead of vegetables, cereals and fruits will sooner or later lead to disease. Currently, many people are switching to a healthy and natural diet: their vegetables, fruits, sprouted cereals and legumes, clean water, herbal teas and fruit drinks, seafood. And after all, good nutrition increases efficiency!
The more useful and wholesome food in the diet, the better the brain will work, the body is awake. Also, the concentration of attention and mood will increase.
Scheduled and lunch breaks
Lunch breaks and “smoke breaks” have a big impact on a person’s performance. Of course, someone literally goes into the smoking room, and someone gets up from the workplace to warm up or go out of need.
The company must have all the conditions for a break and rest of employees in order to avoid overwork, conflict situations and production errors.
Relations with colleagues and management
If a person loves life, he gives love and care to everyone, then relations with others will be wonderful. Such a person will find a common language with both the bosses and the team. Of course, such a worker will have a lot of energy, the work will progress successfully, in the end, an excellent result of work will appear, and at the end of the working day there will be a good mood.
Interest in the field of activity
If a person loves his job, then he will succeed. Therefore, it is advisable to choose a profession that will not only bring profit, but also give pleasure. A person’s performance also increases from what kind of load is expected, whether there will be breaks.
The more interesting the work, the more likely it will be a great result. But all professions are different. For example, one of us likes to treat people, does not disdain; the other, on the contrary, will not be able to work with sick people. Someone is interested in economics, and someone understands computer technology. The physical performance of a person will be high for those who love sports, a moving lifestyle, and boast good health.
There are many more different factors that influence people's activities. But the most important can be called a lifestyle and a love of work. In addition, workers must be provided with a safe and comfortable environment. Psycho-emotional attitude, stress resistance - this is what else affects the performance of everyone.
