Beyond coffee How to cope with a day at work when youve had too little sleep
Beyond coffee How to cope with a day at work when youve had too little sleepBeyond coffee How to cope with a day at work when youve had too little sleepYou get on the train, eyes sore from going to sleep so late last night, and hobble into a seat in the back, trying to catch a few zzzs among the rumbling and talking passengers.But then you get to work, and the real struggle begins. Words and numbers swim in front of your eyes. Hours go by in front of your screen, and you find yourself drifting closer to your desk as your eyelids get more and more heavy. Your entire day fades into triage, just trying to survive and counting the hours until you can go home and pass out.We all know that work wont wait for us to pull our act together on days like those. Heres how to stay alert at work when all you can think about is crawling back into bed.Fuel yourselfThe National Sleep Foundation describes what you can eat and drink in the afternoon to stay awake, including green tea, whole grains, prot ein and fruits, in a post.Very often, tiredness is just another form of thirstiness. The posts section about green tea sheds light on dehydration.Dehydration can make you feel sleepy, but getting plenty of fluids will help boost alertness. Water is your best bet for hydration, but if you must have caffeine, opt for green tea instead of coffee. It has less caffeine (about 35 milligrams compared to about 200 milligrams) so you wont have the same come-down once it wears off. Also, its loaded with good-for-you antioxidants, the post says.Play energetic musicMusic is an instant mood-fixer and mood-lifter. It also can lift or depress our energy. When things are dire, some bouncy music could help get you going again. (Our editors favorite song for this purpose Flo Ridas Club Cant Handle Me. Its upbeat and designed to get peoples energy moving for dancing. Others like hard rock, classic rock, or something even faster. Just aim for more than 128 beats per minute, and avoid mournful and slow tunes.)John Boitnott writes about listening to music when youre tired at work in a Business Insider article.We all have that song that wakes us up and gets us moving. Find that song and play it through earbuds when youre feeling sleepy. If midday slumps are a normal occurrence, consider making a playlist that you can fall back on whenever you need some wake-up music. If your office is private, feel free to dance around a little Boitnott wrote.Head outside or move your bodyFresh air and movement are naturally designed to get us more alert. Instead of breathing in stale office air and sitting at your desk like a potato, get moving. Get your muscles moving while on a brisk walk outside. If you cant leave the building at the moment, try exercising inside instead. Even a few stretches could help clear your mind.Mayo Clinic provides some tipson fitness breaks.Rather than hanging out in the aufenthaltsraum with coffee or a snack, take a brisk walk, hike a few flights of stairs or do some g entle stretching. For example, face straight ahead, then lower your chin to your chest. Or, while standing, grab the back of one of your ankles - or your pant leg - and bring it up toward your buttock. Hold each stretch for 15 to 30 seconds, the website says.Fine. Try Coffee.Yes, caffeine works. You already know that. If youre really exhausted, go for a stronger form like espresso or cold brew - but know that the effects only last for a while, and dont have it in the afternoon or your sleep will suffer again. Also go easy on the sugar, because it leads to an energy crash and theres no way that helps your energy or your body.Rest upEveryone doesnt have the option oftaking naps at work, but if you do, revel in the fact that they are good for you.If not, try to hold on until you make it home, but sure to get a lot of rest for multiple nights in a row.All this triage only works for a while, though. Be careful about not getting enough sleep regularly, however- as Harvard Health Public ations reported, sleep loss may result in irritability, impatience, inability to concentrate, and moodiness. Too little sleep can also leave you too tired to do the things you like to do, and sleep debt contributes to a greater tendency to fall asleep during the daytime. These lapses may cause falls and mistakes such as medical errors, air traffic mishaps, and road accidents, in addition to other points.

Going Back to Work After Maternity Leave 8 Ways to Make It Painless
Going Back to Work After Maternity Leave 8 Ways to Make It PainlessGoing Back to Work After Maternity Leave 8 Ways to Make It PainlessWhatever people think, being a mom is a great challenge. Rumor has it that its much harder than slaying a dragon or cooking ramen. Taking care of your child requires stamina, perseverance and the totality of your heart.But what happens after the maternity leave ends is anotlageher matter entirely. Whether you took three weeks, two months or even one year off from work, going back is rarely easy.Its actually rather difficult on all fronts mental, emotional, physical and logistical. In fact, 67% percent of moms report anxietywhen returning to work for the first time after having a baby. But the change doesnt necessarily need to hit you that hard. It only takes a bit of preparation and knowing what to expect. We bring you 8 useful tips to ease the burden and make your transition as painless - and seamless - as possible.1. Transition slowly and carry out practice runsThe first piece of advice going from 0 to 100 hurts. Try to avoid going back to working full time from the beginning.If you can, start by working from home a few days or weeks before you actually have to leave the house and go back to work.If nothing else, itll give you time to dig your way out of your email inbox and ease back in. Moreover, youll still be able to watch your baby from across the room and take breaks from time to time. This time will also help lower the emotional strain of the separation anxiety. Finally, start spending time away from your baby to get used to it a bit more easily. Start with short intervals of 10 minutes and gradually increase the length of the time youre gone.2. Choose a job you love, so it doesnt feel like workIf you hated your job before you gave birth, its not likely to change now. So if you feel uncomfortable, its time to do something about it. However, try to avoid making any rash decisions. Wait a few months and see how you feel about making any changes. If that doesnt help, find a job with an environment that you genuinely like and that lifts your spirits.Leaving your little one with other caregivers may be emotionally challenging. Still, that emotion can be balanced out by positive feelings of self-esteem and self-worth that you get from being at work. When you feel good about what you do, it invariably translates to your family environment in a positive way and your little one will soak up all of that goodness.3. Hire a caregiver who you can trustThis is possibly the most important thing in the whole process.The last thing you want is to be at work worrying that your nanny/daycare is falling short in any area when it comes to your loved one. If youre having any doubts when talking to them, do not compromise. Gauge the caregivers character and ability, create a rapport with her and give guidance on how you like things to be done. You need to be able to fully trust that whoever is taking care of your kids is doing a superb job. Taking the time to find a good fit will allow you to feel much more confident in your work life too.Once youve chosen a caregiver, go through a few trial sessions and practice runs at least a week before you go back to work. This will ensure your child feels comfortable with them even before you start working.On the other hand, you still need to have a plan B in the vorstellung that the primary caregiver is not available. Reach out to your friends, relatives or neighbors trusted by you and your family.4. Keep your life organized to conserve energyAs a mother, you cant afford to expend resources on things that take up unnecessary energy. Get rid of anything in your home thats not absolutely necessary. For example, think of physical items such as clothes, toys or appliances - anything thats taking up unnecessary space in your life or home.You also need to learn to say no whenever appropriate. If there are too many social gatherings in your calendar, simply cut them down. Pick only those invitations that work best for you as a new mom.Last but not least, are you sweating your heart out working out? Consider quitting that. Treat yourself to activities you can truly enjoy and save your energy for those you love.5. Look for supportDo you have a community you can turn to - be that a local group of moms, your church or any support groups? The supportive voice of other mothers can ease the transition to work by taking off some of the burden. Besides, its always good to know there are other moms out there going through something similar and who just get it. Because empathy and understanding is more than anything else.READ10 Top Career Experts Share Their Resume AdviceHow to Make Your Resume Stand Out?6. Look good - and feel goodChances are youve spent the last few months in leggings and milk covered T-shirts. Now its time to get back into work clothes mode. It doesnt matter if you wear a uniform, office attire or casual clothes. Returning to wo rk is a great excuse to buy some new clothes. Find a few outfits that will make you feel comfortable and attractive.Clothes usually call for some new accessories, shoes or a new work bag. And dont ever feel guilty - after the last couple months youve had, you also definitely deserve a new haircut, have a pedicure/manicure or even a massage. If the time allows, you can even set up a meeting with your work friends for a coffee or a glass of wine and catch up on what has been happening at work.7. Plan your prep time and get organisedYou work all day and care for your baby all evening and all night. But you still need to figure out when to do everything else you need to do - housework, shopping, cooking, exercising, social life and bunch of other mundane tasks. This may become overwhelming really fast and its too easy to feel guilty for not catching up on daily chores. How dare you do things that take attention away from the baby when youve been away from him all day?Keep these things in mind to declutter your daily life from things that are just too banal to be importantPick out your outfits for the following week on Sunday night after the baby goes to bed. Lay out your and babys clothes ready for the morning so you wont be running round deciding what to wear. Iron all your clothes the night before, too, so you dont have to sacrifice that precious morning together-time to do it. Start a meal planfor the week. Make a big tray of food and pre-package your lunches the night before. There is nothing worse than getting home from a long day at work, having to bath and put the nbaby to sleep and then starting to think whats for dinner. The weekly plan means that whoever is home first can start cooking. You will also be able to check the night before if you need to get anything out to defrost or if there are any ingredients to pick up on the day. Embrace online grocery shopping. It will save you time and your sanity. If your budget is not against, hire a cleaner. Time with your family is precious. And its one less thing to worry about after a long week at work, after all.If you exercise, do so with your baby. Seriously, it can be great fun for both you and your little one. And a 15-pound living weight really adds to the entertainmentGet a good diary or wall planner and use it. Dont forget to sync your online calendars to stay organised. If youre taking turns with your partner to pick up from childcare make sure you both have it in your diaries.8. Tackle the mom-guilt thoughtsA million worries running rampant through your mind? Im not doing a good job because Im not taking care of my kids 100% of the time.Why should someone else be taking care of my kids while I go off to work?.Im a bad mom.Youre not alone. In fact, its very common for moms going back to work to feel the cocktail of guilt, worry and sadness about leaving their little one behind.These types of thoughts can occupy your mind and sap emotional energy that could be deployed elsewhere. But ignoring them does no good. You need to challenge them. Talk to your friends and relatives about ways to ease your conscience. Remember that most babies usually have no trouble staying with a childcare provider during the day as long as theyre being fed, changed and treated with love.But if the feelings of guilt persist for a longer period of time, dont hesitate to make a more radical change. Ask for the permission to work from home or switch to a part-time job. This will help you spend more time with your baby and chase those thoughts of guilt away.Going back to work after maternity leave can be easierMaternity leave is the most precious time that belongs to you and your newborn. But when this period ends, its really difficult to maintain that healthy balance between your professional and personal life.But if you take control and become empowered as a mom (whether that means going back to work full-time, staying home or something in between) you can lead your life feeling conte nt and engaged. Nothing compares to a happy and easygoing mom, really. And as youll be enjoying the present moment, you will see your baby thrive too. And that is priceless.Share Your Feedback or Ideas in the Comments

20+ Years Experience Creating a Resume that Highlights Your Expert Skills
20+ Years Experience Creating a Resume that Highlights Your Expert Skills 20+ Years Experience Creating a Resume that Highlights Your Expert Skills How to appear skill-focused and contemporaryAs someone with a long work history, youve got the skills and expertise for high-level jobs. America has millions, yes, millions of open jobs that require skilled workers like you to fill them. But your long years of work experience also might send up red flags for hiring managers. Baby Boomers and other older workers might be perceived to be lacking skills.Age discrimination is illegal, but evidence suggests that its harder to find a job after 40, and that it gets even harder as you get older. But that doesnt mean your skills arent needed. They most certainly are. Getting a new job with a long work history means just selling the usefulness- and rarity- of your skills. Here, well give you a few tips about how to format your long and distinguished resume.Use a two-page resumeA good rule of thumb is that each page of your resume should contain 10 years of experience. Since you have 20 or more years of experience, you can expand your resume to two pages. But if youre going to have a long resume, it should be tailored to the particular job you want and should only include relevant experience. Remember, recruiters only spend an average of 10 seconds scanning a resume. So, if you still have an ice cream scooping job from 15 years ago on your resume, its time to take it off.Use a hybrid resume format.A hybrid resume lets you focus on your skills, rather than going into a long chronology of your work history that can be difficult for applicant tracking systems (ATS) and hiring managers to read. A hybrid resume begins with a section summarizing your qualifications, followed by professional accomplishments, key skills, and a work history. Using measurable data and highlighting information and skills relevant to the current job makes your resume compelling and concise.Tailor your ski ll tischset to contemporary keywords.ATS scans your resume for keywords that exactly match the words used in the job description. You very well may have many or all of the skills that the job description requires, but if you havent applied for a job for a while, you may not be using keyword optimization. In other words, your language might not match the keywords in the job description, even if your skills are the same.Dont let your skills be overlooked because they dont match a job descriptions keywords. Jobscans resume optimization tool lets you scan the job description and your resume to make sure your resumes keywords match exactly. If you arent using the right keywords for a job, you can change your resume to include the skill-equivalent words the company is looking for.?
