Spending a workday in Ramadan is one of the most exhausting things ever. You need to be constantly focusing on work, but you’re also tired because of the lack of fluids and food.

1- Focus on your goals

Don’t get stuck where you regret and worry about what you haven’t done yet. Please write down your accomplishments and remind yourself of them.
Celebrate every task you finish by writing it down and giving yourself a little break as a reward.
2- Get interesting office supplies

It’s necessary to leave your chair every hour and go for a walk. Moving helps with stimulating your blood circulation and energizes you.
This walk can last for only five minutes, but it has to be regularly.
4- Prepare your Iftar ahead

Avoid going through these thoughts and prepare your Iftar ahead. That makes you focus on your professional goals and helps you feel better.
5- Share your thoughts with co-workers

Talk to your co-workers about fasting and its purpose. Tell them why you have to go through this process daily. You will find a lot of support and understanding from them.
Pay attention not to exert too much effort in talking or explaining, as it will make you lose energy while you can save it for work.
6- Remind yourself with fasting rewards

Fasting has physical, mental, and spiritual rewards. It helps a lot with improving heart health and reducing inflammation.
When Muslims fast, they get to see food from a different perspective. Fasting also improves Muslims’ relation with God and makes them closer.
7- Take a break

Working all the time, especially while fasting, won’t improve your productivity. You need a break to renew your energy.
Take small breaks every hour and take a long one in the middle of your day. There’s plenty of activities to do other than eating, like taking a walk, smelling the fresh air, relaxing, or talk to co-workers.
8- Follow a healthy diet

You know yourself better, so write down quotes related to your missions and goals.
Remind yourself why you started to work in the first place and how your job affects your life positively. Write down about your qualities and abilities, which help you see yourself from a better perspective.
10- Reward yourself daily

When you know that you exert your best effort, watch a movie at the end of the day while having popcorn.
You can also reward yourself by going out, seeing friends or doing fun activities.
Eventually,
spending a workday in Ramadan is a challenge for many Muslims, but the smart ones know how to manage it well.
