Rest before you get tired.
“Do what the Army does—take frequent rests. Do what your heart does—rest before you get tired, and you will add one hour a day to your waking life.” —Dale Carnegie
Learn to relax at your work.
“Relax in odd moments Work in a comfortable position Check yourself four or five times a day and say to yourself, ‘Am I making my work harder than it actually is? Test yourself at the end of the day. If I am tired, it is not because of the work I have done, but because of the way I have done it.’ ” —Dale Carnegie
Protect your health and appearance by relaxing at home.
“Nothing will make you look older sooner than tension and fatigue. Nothing will work such havoc on your freshness and looks if you’re going to get the worry kinks out [you’ve] got to relax.” —Dale Carnegie
Apply these four good working habits:
a. Clear your desk of all papers except those relating to the immediate problem at hand.
b. Do things in the order of their importance.
c. When you face a problem, solve it then and there if you have the facts necessary to make a decision.
d. Learn to organize, deputize, and supervise.
“The mere sight of a desk littered with unanswered mail and reports and memos is enough to breed confusion, tension, and worries Executives who build up big businesses and don’t learn to organize, deputize, and supervise, usually pop off [die] with heart trouble.” —Dale Carnegie
Put enthusiasm into your work.
“We talk a lot about the importance of physical exercise to wake us up out of the half sleep in which so many of us walk around. But we need, even more, some spiritual and mental exercises every morning to stir us into action. Give yourself a pep talk every day.” —Dale Carnegie
Don’t worry about insomnia.
“Remember that no one was ever killed by a lack of sleep. Worrying about insomnia causes far more damage than sleeplessness.” —Dale Carnegie
