After 5 yrs..........
Got a job in a top MNC.....very big pay check
But still........................................................................
This is the condition with 99% of the workforce today. We all run behind money, fame, luxury, achievements, etc. but actually forget the most important part that adds life to our life...."RELATIONS".
We actually fail to manage our work & life, which turns up in undesired endings.
Now this issue is seen by employers as major fault in employees performance & companies have started taking steps to help employees to maintain the balance.
Some simple ways one can balance work & life are:
1. What do you really want?
We leak energy and become drained and frustrated when we get into a pattern of pleasing others and living in accordance with their standards rather than our own. Are you clear of your motives and your underlying passions and purpose in life?
What are your values and are they in sync with your actions? Are you being truly authentic and speaking your truth? Getting clarity on what you truly want from your life is the first critical step to leading a more balanced and meaningful existence.
2. Who are you surrounding yourself with?
Are you stimulated by your peers, colleagues and clients? Do you have true friends who have your best interests at heart? Are you in the right environment to best utilise your talents and gifts? Do you have a personal development plan or life/business coach to provide objective guidance?
3. Are you thinking the right way?
There is substantial evidence that the way we think can have a profound and a lasting effect on our mood and motivation levels. If you are one of life's pessimists then you will need to re-programme your thoughts to expect the best not the worst and to swap those habits for more encouraging self talk. Focus on what has been going well rather than how far you are from your goals. See obstacles as opportunities, remain flexible and open to possibilities. Recognizing and being grateful for what you have is a great way of getting things in perspective.
4. Listen to your body.
Self care is essential to restore and maintain well-being and balance
Are you sleeping well?
What are your eating habits?
How would you describe your energy levels?
Taking time to exercise and look after yourself is an essential component to balanced living.Listen to your intuition as it never lets us down and provides the subtle nudges to move us in the direction that is right for us.
5. Set healthy boundaries.
Real life and business is interconnected but that does not mean you need to give up your privacy. You need boundaries so you can feel generous without feeling depleted and available without feeling drained.
6. Nourish your Soul.
Review your emotional and spiritual health. Do you need to forgive someone or let something go?
Are you learning something new?
Are you fully engaged in your work?
Are you connected?
Is there something you were born to do?
