People who have to travel a lot for business often face jet lag and fatigue. This applies in particular to those who regularly travel, mainly outside of their usual time zone.
When you are too tired, you tend to lose focus, forget things and stress yourself unnecessarily. All these things can lead to an unwanted outcome: you losing important clients or failing to close a deal. You will be happy to find out that there are ways to prevent the business travel fatigue from affecting your productivity.
We’ve made a list of three easy methods to stay energized while traveling for work.
Eat Healthy
We bet that you are not able to keep a healthy diet while traveling for work. When you have a lot of tasks to complete and the assigned time is limited, fast food might seem like the best idea. But the fat, the grease, and the extra calories will only decrease your energy, slowing you down and affect your weight. There are methods to help you avoid all that junk food. First of all, it's important to stay hydrated, so pack some bottles of water or buy a few when you get to your destination. Water will diminish your appetite and prevent you from making rash food choices that you will end up regretting.
If you have the time and the possibility to take it with you, we advise you to pack healthy snacks and cooked meals to eat in your hotel room. It's also important to follow your usual meal schedule as much as possible and never skip breakfast.
Get Physical
Do you think that including a workout in your tight business trip schedule is impossible? We assure you that it can be done.
If it's difficult to find a whole hour to work out, consider exercising brief periods throughout the day. For example, choose to take the stairs instead of the elevator. Very often, it's also a lot faster than wasting time to wait for the elevator or for the other persons to descend at their respective floors.
Another wise choice is to dismiss the idea of ordering in room service at the end of your workday and walk a little bit to a good restaurant. Also, while packing for your trip, why don't you put a few resistance bands in your luggage to use during your spare time in your hotel room.
Nowadays, there are lots of hotels that have an onsite gym or pool that you can access for free. Take advantage of this perk and try to go for a quick swim or a workout before going to the office every day.
Book a Car Service
This option may not seem right in context with the other two, but it’s really a great idea. Have you considered that a lot of the fatigue you experience is because of the traffic and the stress of driving? It's difficult to get by in an unfamiliar place, with unusual traffic patterns, while trying to get to your destination without getting lost or in an accident. Why deal with this all this stress that will eventually wear you out? Choose to sit back and relax while a professional chauffeur drives you wherever you need.
You shouldn't let fatigue ruin your business trips. Try to follow these tips to boost your energy, increase concentration and return home without losing your mental health or a big client!
