Don’t force through low energy levels. Honor your natural energy rhythms. If you are tired at 3 p.m. every day, for example, be aware of this situation and do recreational activities.

You can try taking a quick walk, doing stretches in your office, or even taking a power nap for 10 to 20 minutes.

You won’t be working efficiently, and you’ll drain even more energy from your mind and body if you work against your rhythm.

Balance your power and energy. Sometimes you may work at maximum energy levels, but you’re not operating at optimum productivity if you do this all day long.

Don’t aim to become a nonstop robot. Instead, you can try to balance intense productivity activities with slower, “brainless” activities or breaks.

A lot of stress is made up in our mind, and it can be controlled and minimized.

1. Decide Not To Be Stressed:

Most stress is not real, and therefore, you can make the intentional decision not to be as stressed anymore. Many stress comes from false timing, making things more important than they are.

2. Breathe:

Relax by taking in deeper breaths. Let your stomach out and allow it to fill up like a balloon with air. This will help you calm down.

3. Take A Walk:

Leave your office or house and go for a 20 to 40-minute a walk outside. When you are moving and breathing, this helps you open your mind and find more calm.

4. Get Organized:

Most stress in our lives could be managed if we just organized it better. Sometimes, just knowing that you are planning on handling something tomorrow at a specific time creates peace of mind now.

Self-care is your relationship and connection to yourself.

It is crucial to understand what you need to be your most constructive, effective, and authentic to yourself.

Therefore, self-care is a mix of physical health as well as care of the mind, emotions, relationships, environment, time, and resources.

Self-care should be ideally involved naturally in your workday. The how is highly personal and should help you to connect with yourself rather than adding more todos on your list.

Some tips and inspirations

• Allow yourself a break.
• Value time, money, and resources, and benchmark others requests against your priority list.
• Reflect on what was running well in the last weeks and take a victory lap.
• Surround yourself with good people.
• Update your workspace and make it a reflection of your best self.
• Recharge and reboot. Ensure to have enough rest.

It starts already with the winding down at the end of the day to clear your mind and to be satisfied with the achievements of the day.

• Transition from the day
• Reduce screen time
• Reflect on the positive outcomes of the day
• Make yourself a comfortable home

After work, do one thing to assist you to unleash the strain from the day.

Meditating, exercising, stretching, or taking a nap or a short walk.

Have a transition routine that tells you the busy day is over and it's time to wind down.

Social media and screen time will increase anxiety and brain activity, preventing you from winding down.

Rather than looking at or following something on a screen, do your hobby, browse a book, have a decent communication with an acquaintance.

Write down all the items you learned, accomplished and that you are glad for this day.

Then, write down what you wish to try and do tomorrow thus you'll free your mind and relax.

Dim the lights, play calming music, light-weight candles, and lower the temperature.

And before you go to bed, generate feeling and tell yourself the day is completed, you’ve done your best, and everyone is well.

Every leader at one stage or another has to make a stand-up presentation to a group. This is an integral part of being a good leader. 

To deliver an excellent presentation:

1. Create your presentation

by researching your topic, gathering applicable anecdotes, and talking to colleagues who have the information you need.

2. Develop an outline with three parts

• The beginning – where you tell them what’s coming.
• The middle – where you explain what you’re saying.
• The end – where you remind them of your key points.

3. Structure your argument

which will be a mix of logic, reasons, and projected results of your suggestions. Your argument should be able to be expressed in one sentence and should be a mix of fact and personality.

4. Specify your persuasive message

what you actually want listeners to do after hearing your presentation. You need to have clear in your mind what actions you want people to take if you hope to be effective.

5. Develop the first draft of your presentation

while keeping in mind your answers to a few pertinent questions:

• What is your central message?
• Why are you giving this presentation?
• What analogies are you using to amplify your message?
• Which visual images are available to illustrate things?
• What specific call to action will you close with?

6. Revise your draft

by rewriting it yourself or sharing it with colleagues and asking for their input. You may also give your boss a heads-up look at your presentation to make certain you’re on track.

Venue and formal style

While developing your presentation, you’ll also need to keep in mind how and where it will be delivered. Those factors will determine how formal or informal your presentation should be. 

Many corporate leaders do both – they have a brief prepared presentation which is of a formal nature and then open it up for questions-and-answers, which will be quite informal in nature.

The venue you will be using will also have an impact in this area, as will the size of your audience and the circumstances in which you are meeting.

Body language is essential in many situations. Some would argue that it is just as important as what you say.

When we are in stressful or uncomfortable situations, many of us have habits that can be distracting to other people. Certainly, biting one's nails or continuously fidgeting with one's hands could be distracting from what you are trying to say. These are examples of body language that can be harmful in an interviewing situation, for example. Used correctly, however, body language can reinforce what you are saying and give a more significant impact on your statements. 

The following are tips to help you give the right non-verbal clues.

1. The Greeting

Giving a "dead fish" handshake will not advance one's candidacy: neither will opposite extreme, the iron-man bone crusher grip.

The ideal handshake starts before the meeting actually occurs. Creating the right impression with the handshake is a three-step process. Be sure that:

• Your hands are clean and adequately manicured.
• Your hands are warm and reasonably free of perspiration. (There are a number of ways to ensure this, including washing hands in warm water at the interview site, holding one's hand close to the cheek for a few seconds, and even applying a little talcum powder.)
• The handshake itself is executed professionally and politely, with a firm grip and a warm smile. Remember that if you initiate the handshake, you may send the message that you have a desire to dominate the conversation.
• Use only one hand; always shake vertically. The right hand is international standard.

2. Facial Signals

We are using a set of stereotypes that enables us to make judgments -- consciously or unconsciously -- about a person's abilities and qualities. Those judgments may not be accurate, but they are usually difficult to reverse.

Tight smiles and tension in the facial muscles often bespeak an inability to handle stress; little eye contact can communicate a desire to hide something; pursed lips are often associated with a secretive nature; and frowning, looking sideways, or peering over one's glasses can send signals of haughtiness and arrogance.

3. The Eyes

Looking at someone means showing interest in that person, and showing interest is a giant step forward in making the right impression.

Your aim should be to stay with a calm, steady, and non-threatening gaze. Rather than looking the speaker straight-on at all times, create a mental triangle incorporating both eyes and the mouth; your eyes will follow a natural, continuous path along the three points. Maintain this approach for roughly three-quarters of the time; you can break your gaze to look at the interviewer's hands as points are emphasized, or to refer to your note pad.

4. The Head

Rapidly nodding your head can leave the impression that you are impatient and eager to add something to the conversation. Slower nodding, on the other hand, emphasizes interest, shows that you are validating the comments of your partner. Tilting the head slightly, when combined with eye contact and a natural smile, demonstrates friendliness and approachability.

5. The Mouth and Smile

One guiding principle of good body language is to turn upward rather than downward. Look at two boxers after a fight: the loser is slumped forward, brows knit and eyes downcast, while the winner's smiling face is thrust upward and outward. The victor's arms are raised high, his back is straight, his shoulders are square. In the first instance the signals we receive are those of anger, frustration, belligerence, and defeat; in the second, happiness, openness, warmth, and confidence.

Your smile is one of the most powerful positive body signals in your arsenal; it best exemplifies the up-is-best principle, as well. Offer an unforced, confident smile as frequently as opportunity and circumstances dictate. Avoid at all costs the technique that some applicants use: grinning idiotically for the length of the interview, no matter what. This will only communicate that you are either insincere or not quite on the right track.

6. The Hands

Proper use of the hands throughout the conversation will help to convey an above-board, "nothing-to-hide" message. Watch out for hands and fingers that take on a life of their own, fidgeting with themselves or other objects such as pens, paper, or your hair. Pen tapping is interpreted as the action of an impatient person; this is an example of an otherwise trivial habit that can take on immense significance in an interview situation.

7. The Moves

Here are general suggestions on good body language:

• Walk slowly, deliberately, and tall upon entering the room.
• Use mirroring techniques. In other words, make an effort to reproduce the positive signals your counterpart.
• Do not hurry any movement.
• Relax with every breath.
