The Deadly Toll of Exhaustion: Prevention for Professionals & Founders

Updated: 1 day ago

Amit Banerji, the founder of Table Space, passed at just 45. It is saddening to hear the news of one of us passing away at such a young age.


We, the torchbearers of the hustle culture, have made it cool to sacrifice our physical health and mental well-being to keep our companies alive.


But at what cost? Chronic exhaustion has become the norm, and we're paying the price with our lives. We keep thinking we can focus on our health when things improve. There is always one important meeting, one last deadline, one more email or just one day to rest and do nothing. Looks like we are all sitting on a ticking time bomb when it comes to our health. And we may not have all the time in the world to fix it.


The Deadly Toll of Exhaustion


The time to act upon ourselves is now. What if you were a client that needed service from your company? You would give this person all the attention he needed, regardless of whether you were in the mood. We need to prioritise our health this way, too. There is never going to be a right time. There is never going to be a right mood. People are not going to run behind your back pushing you to look after yourself (if you do have someone like this, cherish them and do this for them!) if going to the gym is not feasible every day, some personal trainers can help you.


An application like ReLive can give quantifiable information on your physical and mental health improvements. ReLive has a DIY laptop or desktop app-based option starting at Rs. 999/year for a family and also a coach-led model that can gradually help you get better, similar to a coach which sportsmen have to make themselves better.


Let's take control of our health before exhaustion takes control of us. Let's make time for self-care, for rest, and for rejuvenation. Let's prioritize our health, lest we run out of time.

This is not an ad for this application, but just a reminder for all of us to start focussing on our health, too, lest we run out of time.
