We all know the power of distraction. One minute we’re focused on that spreadsheet, and the next minute we’re planning dinner. Distraction can pull you away from the things you need to accomplish, and just might make the difference between getting that promotion or not. So can waffling on important business or management decisions. And if you’re falling asleep at your keyboard at 3 o’clock, why would your boss want you running the team?

Do you come home from work with your shoulders cramped above your ears? Grind your teeth during the bumper to bumper commute? Clench your fists or bite your nails? Those are all signs that you are stressed out. As we work harder and harder to earn that paycheck, or as emergencies crop up with loved ones, stress can take its toll. It can affect our relationships, our happiness, and our health.

Do you generally feel fatigued? Or is there a certain time of day in which your energy level crashes and you just want to head for bed? While the amount of sleep you get is certainly a factor, it could also be due to a lack of exercise.

While it might seem counter-intuitive that expending more energy can actually revitalize you, it is true, working out gives your system a boost. A wealth of studies have shown that people who exercise even a moderate amount report having more energy when compared to people who do not exercise.
