Balancing Life and Work 1. Figure Out What Really Matters to You in Life

What do you value? Its an important question to ask yourselfIn identifying what you value, consider aspects of your life now or how youd like it to be in terms of family, independence, adventure, stability, compassion, financial security, integrity, health, outdoors, and so on.

1. Figure Out What Really Matters to You in Life

When you know what you value, and you act in line with that, you experience a sense of clarity. When theres a disconnect between what really matters to you and your behavior, however, you can either ignore it (through distractions such as drinking, drugs, video games, and reckless behaviors) or you can give yourself a gut-check and take action.

1. Figure Out What Really Matters to You in Life

Try asking yourself these questions:

Do I view each day as a chance to better myself and learn from my successes and failures?Do I pursue excellence (not perfection) but act with compassion towards myself and others?Do I maintain balance and perspective between work and the rest of my life?Do I respect other people in my day-to-day life?Are my actions in line with my values?

2. Drop Unnecessary Activities

Make a list of each activity in your workday and week, from driving the car to sitting in meetings. Which activities are not necessary? Can you drop any of them? Try dropping those activities for a week or a month, and track any changes in your results at work. You may be surprised by how much more efficient you can be.

3. Protect Your Private Time

"Stop checking email and cell phones so often," Hobfoll advises. "Few people are so important that they need their phones on at all times.

Protect Your Time

Your time is your most valuable resource, even more so than money,you cannot get more time. Dont let others waste or steal it.

4. Accept Help to Balance Your Life

Allow yourself to rely on your partner, family members, or friends.

Stress ManagementStress is what you feel when you have to handle more than you are used to. When you are stressed, your body responds as though you are in danger. It makes hormones that speed up your heart, make you breathe faster, and give you a burst of energy. This is called the fight-or-flight stress response.But if stress happens too often or lasts too long, it can have bad effects. It can be linked to headaches, an upset stomach, back pain, and trouble sleeping.
