Most of us consistently feel exhausted. Here are 14 reasons why you could be feeling worn out:

1. You are not drinking enough water

Even mild dehydration can lead to a significant drop in energy levels, mood, and cognitive abilities.

2. You are not sleeping enough

Missing out on that precious 8-hours sleep every night can make you feel foggy.

3. You are eating too much junk food

We’re talking about high-carb foods like burgers and fries, white rice, pasta, and bread.

4. You are using your phone a lot at night

Exposing yourself to the light from your phone, computer, TV, or tablet so late in the day can have a huge impact on the amount and quality of sleep you get.

5. You are not having proper breakfast

Breakfast is the most important meal of your day.

6. You are not exercising enough

Too much and too little exercise is a problem. You need to get into a routine workout that is required for you.

7. You are having too much caffeine

To much caffeine can disturb your sleep-wake cycle.

8. You are surrounded by toxic people

You need to get rid of all the toxic people around you.

9. You are a perfectionist

If you are a perfectionist, you work harder and longer than necessary.

10. You are not consuming enough iron

Iron deficiency can leave you feeling irritable, weak, sluggish and unable to focus.

11. You are not getting enough sunlight

You should definitely aim to get an hour or two of sunlight each day.

12. You have a messy office

A cluttered desk can mentally exhaust you.

13. You are skipping meals

We obtain our energy mostly through the nutrients in our food, so when you skip meals, your body’s energy stores become depleted.
