Last challenge of the year. The topic was quite interesting and beneficial to everyone. It was about brains, balancing life and professional life. We had a group of 5 people. We planned to read some articles and parts from books. Our team wanted to focus on brains, and how our teammates balancing their life. We had our first meeting together at akatemia. We had a short time, but we wanted to use it as effectively as possible. We decided to give pre-task for our presentation and had a good vision of what is going to happen when we have the sharing part. We had a really clear plan and what is going to happen, but the sharing part was a little bit different than I was expecting. The plan was changed or we everyone didn’t know about our time limit. There was a little lack of communication. This was one of the things we must improve for the next time.
Material about the brain and balanced life was good and beneficial for everyone in the class. Balancing life when doing business is important because it can avoid burnout. Our entire class got a nice study about balancing life because our team had a PowerPoint presentation about facts and research and the other team had a yoga session. Creating boundary between work, free time and personal life has been hard for many of us. Taking this seriously and actually plan your life, you must make time for yourself just to relax. Doing activity like yoga or meditation instead of watching Netflix or checking social media is important because it helps you to relax and clear your mind. After these relaxing breaks you will be able to work more efficiently. Having modern working environment may also help you to balance your working life. Good working environment may help you to work more effectively and also avoid you from burnout. Overall this topic was important to go through and I think we all got something new. I am going to plan my weeks in the future and always put some time for myself to relax and take my thoughts away from school and work even it might be hard at the beginning. By doing this planning, I will find my limits.
My team’s communication problem was the only poor thing about this challenge, and we are going to be better next time.
