Are routines boring?

Do you feel xhausted and unfocused? Grandma might have been onto something. Stick to a routine. Seems simple enough right? Yet you find yourself going to bed later than on a normal workday, sleeping in, and feeling little to no motivation. So shift your mindset. The world around you might not be normal but these are still workdays. Go to bed, get up, work-out, take breaks, and start and end your work day as you did pre COVID-19. Humans crave structure; the brain is a fascinating machine that continues to find ways to be more efficient, so if you stick to your routine you'll simply be more productive because simple tasks will become automated and your brain can now focus fully on all of your day to day tasks. If you have children at home or a team, make sure they stick to their routines as well.
