both at work and at home share the tasks with your teams and your support network; do not carry all the obligations. This is key to coexistence anywhere.

Although all your tasks are important, not all of them are equally urgent or necessary for the same moment. Order your chores and focus on one at a time.

Understanding that things don't always happen as we plan is key to not burden yourself with more. The unforeseen are part of the day to day.

The best way to not overwork is to spend time from work to work. Avoid procrastinating more than necessary or postponing tasks that you can do today for another time.

when inconveniences or problems occur, don't waste time complaining or worrying, take care! Looking for practical solutions and quick solutions usually saves us hassle and delays.

It's okay to help others or offer to do extra work for your work, but don't overextend yourself, recognize how much workload you can handle and don't accept when this compromises your rest time.
9. Establish schedules:
not only with your bosses, but also with your co-workers and, even more, with yourself. Determine what time you are going to work and what time you are going to disconnect to be with your loved ones.
10. Take care of yourself:
your well-being should always be a priority; Treat yourself to leisure and fun time every day, get enough sleep, eat well, exercise and give space to your life projects.
