Our body works nonstop, but an unhealthy lifestyle slowly damages the organs that keep us alive. Habits like excessive alcohol, smoking, junk food, poor sleep, and constant stress force the heart, lungs, and kidneys to work much harder than they are designed to.

🫀 Heart:
Alcohol and fatty foods narrow the blood vessels, making the heart pump with extra force. This constant pressure weakens the heart muscles and raises the risk of high blood pressure and heart attack.

🫁 Lungs:
Smoking and pollution damage the delicate air sacs that help absorb oxygen. As the lungs lose strength, even simple activities like walking or climbing stairs become tiring because the body isn’t receiving enough oxygen.

🩺 Kidneys:
Kidneys filter toxins every second, but alcohol, dehydration, and high sodium overload them. Kidney damage is silent, and symptoms appear only when major function is lost.

Healthy choices—hydration, exercise, clean eating, and avoiding alcohol and smoking—help your organs work smoothly and keep you healthier for years.

FACTS ABOUT THE WORKPLACE.

1. Your boss is not your friend. Regardless of how close you both are, learn to set PROFESSIONAL boundaries.

2. Walls have ears. Be careful who you confide in at work. A listening ear could also be a flippant mouth.

3. Your employer is now concerned about RESULTS. How you get the JOB done is up to you. No excuses.

4. There is always that one person/ group of persons feeding the boss with happenings in the office. Some employees brief go beyond the official ( except in work cultures where such act is expressly frowned upon). Be guided.

5. When you get withdrawn from PROJECTS or someone is asked to understudy you or you get demoted without cogent reason(s), that may be a cue you'd soon be shown the exit door.

6. As much as you can, keep your private life away from COLLEAGUES. You might be under INVESTIGATION for achieving some personal great feat without you even knowing.

7. Somebody your colleagues may not even like you, it could be the way you LOOK, DRESS, SPEAK, your capabilities, accomplishments at work, your aura or for some weird reasons and that is fine. Everybody cannot like you, so accept that.

8. Pay attention to body language, tone, pitch and pace of voice from your team members, colleagues or your boss. They may provide important cues to what isn't expressly said. Studies have shown that emotions,likes and dislikes are communicated via 38% para- verbal and 55% non verbal. Only 7% are communicated via verbal communication.

9. There will always be that " exceptional colleague" who gets the job done, gets the recognition and praises. Don't let that feeling of DISDAIN or inadequacy set in. See what that person is doing differently, how they do it and learn. You'll become a better person. Be open to LEARNING.

10. While the workplace should foster POSITIVE VALUABLE RELATIONSHIPS, your primary aim is to get the job done and go home. Don't forget that.
