Many of us experience symptoms of laziness while fasting during Ramadan, which negatively affects our productivity. As a result, we begin to feel

that something is wrong.

Feelings of laziness are expected to increase during Ramadan 1441, coinciding with the coronavirus crisis, which has forced everyone to

work remotely during the lockdown.

Many people are trying to find effective ways to overcome this state of laziness and lethargy, but some fail to put together a plan

And stick to it for 30 days.

People who fast commonly experience headaches and fatigue during the first few days of the holy month, as their bodies adjust from the routine they’ve followed up to that point

to a particular daily routine.

Here’s a plan that can help employees effectively overcome fatigue during Ramadan.

.

Avoid fragmented sleep during the day

For some of us, Ramadan can turn our daily routine upside down. Everyone stays up late and doesn’t get

enough sleep. After finishing work in the morning, some of us take a nap or sleep intermittently.

Beware of this—it’s one of the main things that can make you feel sluggish and give you a headache throughout the fasting period. It can also have a disastrous effect on

Productivity at work.

Make a commitment now to get 6 to 8 hours of uninterrupted sleep each night.

.

Eat suhoor that gives you energy in the morning

Some people may underestimate suhoor or treat it casually, even though it is the essential meal that determines how

your day goes during the fasting hours.

Be sure to eat foods rich in nutrients that help maintain blood glucose levels, such as legumes like fava beans

and lentils, which will help you feel energized and active.

Avoid foods that may make you feel sluggish during fasting hours, and make sure to eat foods that are also high in

potassium, as it can significantly help prevent thirst. These include bananas, milk, dates, dried apricots, pistachios, avocados,

and dark chocolate.

.

Follow a healthy diet

Poor nutrition is one of the general causes of low energy at work. So, make use of Ramadan to follow a healthy,

balanced diet, and don’t disrupt your usual routine by eating rich foods that lack nutritional value and essential nutrients.

Gradually cut back on stimulants, as they are a major cause of morning headaches.

.

Remember the consequences of laziness

Now, remember that the consequences of slacking off at work can be serious. Of course, you don’t want to be disciplined

for not doing your job during the holy month.

When you feel laziness taking over, remember that your tasks will pile up, making them impossible to finish—and leaving you unable to feel

at ease afterward.

.

Don’t neglect your leisure time

The advice above doesn’t mean you should avoid enjoying your time during Ramadan—whether through worship and drawing closer to God or spending time with your family,

and having a good time however you choose. Quite the opposite: you can motivate yourself to finish your work

in the morning, so you can then focus on everything you want to do.

Your success in overcoming laziness depends on how well you follow the advice above. Start taking practical steps

and put your plans into action to avoid leaving Ramadan with the title of “worst employee.”
