Guest Post: Traveling For Work? Tips To Stay Healthy

1/25/2023

If you’re traveling for work or to attend a conference, it can be challenging to find time for self-care and prioritizing your health in the midst of a demanding schedule. However, you still need to make time for exercise, whether it's between conference meetings or at a certain time each day. Here are some things you can do to make traveling while working easier, courtesy of the Wellness Project.

Staying Organized on the Road
Building up a routine and staying organized are two of the most helpful things you can do when you're traveling for work. Establish a routine, such as getting up at a certain time and eating meals at particular times during the day, to minimize jet lag, fatigue, disorientation in new locations, and other issues you could run into.
 
With your routine, focus on organization. Always pack your items in the same place, and consider using a filing system to keep your work documents in order. You could even consider taking photographs of your most important documents with your smartphone, so you have them available to you online or offline. 
 
You should also add exercise and healthy eating to your routine. Make time for meals at least three times a day, and try to shop for groceries or healthy food whenever you can. If you can't make time for exercise, consider taking the stairs instead of an elevator or jogging between your parked car and a store, for example, to get some extra steps in and burn some calories. 
 
Then, when you're done for the day, focus on relaxation. Turn off your devices, get a massage, and relax. Reducing stress is a great way to stay healthy and unwind at the end of the day.

Staying Safe as You Travel
Staying safe while you travel is a must. If you're going to stay in a hotel, you should choose a reputable brand with good reviews. Avoid staying on the ground level to prevent break-ins, and keep your luggage locked up any time you aren't in your room. When you are in your room, use the deadbolt to make sure others can't come in or push the door open unexpectedly.

The Perks of Traveling With Pets
Pets, especially dogs, are great for helping you boost your mental and physical health while you're traveling for work. Whether you're a freelancer or solopreneur, your pet can keep you connected and help you meet new people on walks or while you're out and about.
 
When you take your pet with you, you should purchase a few products to keep them safe and sound. Consider purchasing a GPS collar to make sure you can find them if they escape so you have real-time mapping and can track their exact location from your smartphone. Grab some good dog food and toys, plenty of water, and a strong harness to keep them with you, and you'll have a great time with your pet on your trip.
 
Your health has to come first while you travel for work or to attend a conference. It can be a challenge but good organization, stress-reduction techniques, the company of your pet, and dedicating some time to self-care can all make a difference, making you more productive in the long run.

Repost:Transformational Leadership (Points of Leadership)

Recently Kevin Price, Host of the nationally syndicated Price of Business Show, welcomed (Dr. Feyi Obamehinti) to provide another commentary in a series.

Quote: "Remember your leaders, who spoke the word of God to you. Consider the outcome of their way of life and imitate their faith" - Hebrews 13:7 

Points of Leadership is all about equipping leaders in maximizing their leadership for the people they lead.

Mr. Nelson Mandela, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Ms. Margaret Thatcher have left us their legacies of excellent transformational leadership. Mandela transformed an entire continent with his example of reconciliation in Africa. Dr. King transformed a nation with his message of non-violence in the pursuit of changes in the United States. Thatcher transformed the why and how of politics of the United Kingdom. These transformational leaders were consensus builders that understood principles. They were great visionaries that saw things beyond their time. They understood the power of the greater good and value of collaboration. With a new year we can glean from their transformational leadership and legacies. A new year comes with changes, improvements and new horizons. 

Transformational Leaders: 
1. Lead by example: transformational leaders don't just talk the talk. They walk the walk. They live the walk. They live the talk. Living out their values through their authenticity, vulnerability and inspiration their influence draws others to transformation.

2. Lead with an open mind: transformational leaders live life with open minds. They understand the power of the mind and how thoughts influence actions. They see the value everyone brings and allow their curiosity to build consensus for the greater good. 

3. Lead by principles: transformational leaders live by principles that build character, impact and movement. They allow their lived principles to guide their lives, decisions and choices.

Here is our call to action: Leaders, make 2023 a transformational year with your leadership.  Lead by example. Lead with an open mind. And lead by godly principles.
