In Brazil, late January is a strange time. Most people are back at work after the New Year holidays, but the "Carnaval" spirit is already starting to appear. This period is often called the "January Slump" because it is hard to focus on professional goals when the weather is perfect for the beach.
However, many professionals are using the summer heat as a motivation to be more efficient. The "Work-Life Balance" concept is becoming very popular in big cities like São Paulo and Rio. Instead of working long hours, people are trying to "work smarter." This means starting the day earlier to enjoy the sunlight after 6:00 PM.
Also, the "Home Office" culture allows many Brazilians to work from different locations. Some people travel to the coast and work from there. They use the morning for meetings and the late afternoon for a swim. This "Refresh" is not just about resting; it is about changing your environment to stay creative. Although the heat can make us feel tired, the blue sky usually gives us the extra energy we need to finish the month strong.
