Experts warn that being underworked can be just as damaging as being overworked in the UAE

In a surprising turn of events, a teacher at a prestigious school found herself feeling trapped and unfulfilled despite being in what many would consider an ideal work environment. This case sheds light on the fact that being underworked can be just as harmful as being overworked. The teacher’s experience reflects a broader issue that many individuals face—the danger of having a routine that does not align with their core values and passions. This misalignment can gradually lead to mental and physical health issues without the individual even realizing it.

Anne Jackson, the founder and CEO of One Life Coaching ME, has witnessed numerous clients suffering from the negative effects of routines that do not resonate with their true selves. She emphasizes the importance of aligning daily habits with values and passions to prevent them from slowly eroding an individual’s well-being. Jackson points out that many people adopt habits without questioning their impact, which can lead to feelings of boredom, frustration, and burnout, as seen in the case of the underworked teacher.

Life coach Danielle Smith, founder of The Positive Workplace, highlights the significance of regular self-assessment to detect early signs that a routine may be harmful. Persistent fatigue, lack of enthusiasm, and a sense of being trapped are indicators that it may be time to reevaluate one’s routine. Smith emphasizes the importance of making small changes to habits every day, as these seemingly minor adjustments can have a significant impact on an individual’s overall well-being over time.

Jackson and Smith stress the importance of making small, manageable steps to realign a routine with core values and passions. Starting with small positive changes can set individuals on the right path without the need to overhaul their entire routine overnight. Both experts suggest that prioritizing what’s most important at any given time is more effective than striving for a perfectly balanced routine at all times. By adapting the routine to support well-being and aligning it with core values, individuals can create a more fulfilling and sustainable lifestyle.

Incorporating mindfulness or self-care practices into the daily routine can be a powerful way to counteract the effects of a misaligned routine. Apps that offer guided meditations and mindfulness practices, as well as engaging in various forms of exercise, can help individuals regain energy and focus. Making small adjustments, such as setting specific hours for rest and leisure, can also make a significant difference in promoting overall well-being. By understanding and prioritizing core values, individuals can reshape their routines to better align with who they truly are, leading to a more fulfilling and purposeful life.
