By focusing on the things that we control, we can make adjustments that greatly benefit our mental well-being.
Reddit user Wtzablocki submitted a story to the platform’s ‘Antiwork’ community, detailing how they improved their work life. And the beautiful aspect of it is that the change didn’t require all that much effort.
All that Wtzablocki did was they stopped explaining themselves to their employer whenever they wanted time off.
