Same as you but I noticed that if you have a healthy routine and exercise regularly, you can stay energized no matter the weather. And that's key for building a startup.
Nathalie
@french_ninja agree with you
Ruben Boonzaaijer
No, and it shouldn't. Why bother about things you can't control?
Nathalie
@ruben_boonz reasonable
Ruben Boonzaaijer
@lelekou what's your take on this?
Nathalie
@ruben_boonz Scientifically, changes in weather can influence neurotransmitter levels in the brain, particularly serotonin and dopamine, which are associated with mood regulation. Additionally, weather can also impact physical well-being, such as joint pain during cold, damp weather, which can indirectly affect mood. While weather may influence mood, we can employ various methods to self-regulate and minimize its impact as much as possible. Practice mindfulness, maintain social connections, make indoor space comfortable and inviting with warm lighting, one of you @max_avery mentioned in the comments section, prioritize self-care, etc.

@diana_iun you can't control your surrounding but you can control how you react

Yes. Rainy days make me feel lazy. I prefer to stay in and sleep all day.

@s_govindachetty Same for me!
Viola Schoell
Absolutely. When the weather is good, my mood reflects it as well. Nonetheless, I make an effort to maintain a positive mood even on bad weather days.
Nathalie
@viola_s Good luck

It really does! I cannot say it affects my productivity, because I love what I do no matter if it's rainy or sunny. But I can clearly see how my whole personality changes when the sun is out (pretty rare thing when living in Finland!), for better, of course :)
Nathalie
@sandradjajic Absolutely! Sunnier days can definitely lift spirits, even in Finland's often cloudy weather.
Luka Brzin
I don't mind if it's sunny or cloudy or even rainy (of course i prefer sunny over the other two), but the one thing i don't like is cold weather. Me and my cousin make this "joke" where we say that we love to lay in the sun and absorb the heat like two lizards.
Nathalie
@luka_brzin Hahahahahahaha I can't stand the cold either.
Luka Brzin
@lelekou it sucks, especially when you go to vacation to a hot country and then you come back to the cold. Can't stand it
Aneesh Arora
Definitely. If it is rainy and cloudy for a lot of days with no sign of the Sun it gets a bit depressing. Mind you I live in the tropical zone so the Sun is usually always around.
Nathalie
@aneesh_arora Well, lucky one, send some sunshine our way when you can, will you
Aneesh Arora
@lelekou Too be honest I don't feel lucky. Lots of mosquitoes and it is really hot! I want to move to someplace colder.
Maurizio Isendoorn
It did, until I decided not to care about bad weather anymore. The reason for that was because in the Netherlands (where I live) it turns out that it rains 10% of the time (=2.4 hours per day on average). So now I can be outside when it rains without caring😂
Nathalie
@maurizioisendoorn I am also trying to protect myself from the bad weather.
Marvin Mändle
It does! But I also like rainy days or weeks when my calendar is packed. Then I don't have FOMO :D
Nathalie
Igor Lysenko
Yes, there are times when I feel comfortable working in rain or snow.
Nathalie
@ixord Great！
Robyn Dwoskin
100%, I wish it weren't the case. And seasonal affective disorder is very real for many people.
Nathalie
@robyn_dwoskin1 The truth
Laura Dovalina
The heat makes me unpleasant lol
Nathalie
@laura_dovalina28 Sending you some refreshment
Philip Osei
1000%. I hate anything that isn't hot and sunny.
Nathalie
@unclephilosei Enjoy every sunny day!

Certainly, weather influences mood, but it's all about perspective! Sunny days uplift me, perfect for outdoor adventures and to change the perspective for my projects, while gray, rainy ones offer a serene backdrop for introspection and creativity.
Nathalie
@natalie_trotsenko Exactly! Different weather brings different perspectives and opportunities for creativity and reflection.
Anil Yarimca
Same here 🙌
Boris Markarian
It absolutely does! Sometimes I feel like I'm working like a solar cell)

Max Avery
For sure I make use of red light panels a lot in the winter months
Nathalie
@max_avery It feels warm! So smart!
