Snark all you want, but as someone slowly going crazy from work these seem like a very useful set of heuristics to build awareness of the way my body and mind react to things. Lack of sleep or poor sleep really does affect my emotions and decision-making the next day. Thinking about exactly which people or situations make me feel anxious or energized helps me recognize those emotions as they arise and try to dial them back. TLDR: get sleep, protect yourself from interruptions, and pay attention to how you react to your work and life activities and emotions (aka mindfulness).
