2. WHAT IS WORK LIFE
BALANCE
Work-life balance is a term used
to describe the balance between
workplace obligations and
personal responsibilities.
It was coined to address the
unhealthy life choices that many
people were making and when
they were choosing to neglect
other important areas of life such
as family, friends and hobbies in
favor of work-related tasks and
goals.

10. Set SMART Goals:
Plan and Prioritize your goals [S.M.A.R.T  Specific, Measurable,
Attainable, Realistic and Timely]
9. Plan a Structure:
Work life balance is all about Flexibility which can be achieved by a
Structure in place as it brings certainty (You know what’s going to
happen and why). It also includes TOOLS / RESOURCES to have
flexibility. This includes you being able to work from variety of
places in different times of a day effectively. For this you would
need mobile phones, laptops, remote access and flexible hours are
important.

8. Practice Good Time Management: It means to do the right things in a
right way at the right time. For this you need to focus on your priorities
and focus on those tasks that advance important goals; those goals that
will bring in high pay off results.
Activities that involve too much time should be simplified, delegated or
eliminated. Good time management means focusing on results. It’s
important to aim for excellence but not necessarily for perfection. Cause
when you aim for excellence you might get excellent results but when
you aim for perfection you might never quite get there.

5. Reward Yourself: They are important because they are something
extra that you have been working towards. So, after you have set your
goals and achieved them take the reward. You can choose to reward
yourself be it at work or home. By doing this everything will become
more enjoyable. Take the small and big rewards. You deserve it.
4. Stay Healthy: It’s important to eat well, sleep well and exercise. You
need good office desk, good chair, good lighting, no fall over cables
and at home it is just as valid. At home a good bed is also important as
one spends most of the time there. Medical check ups are important.
When working hard any of the therapies and check ups are cost
effective.

3. Be Passionate and Enthusiastic: Mix with positive people and
don’t accept negativity either privately or professionally. See the
Opportunity and not the obstacle. Always try to see the positive
situation of any thing. Look harder look longer and look at it
differently. Two techniques to attain these is 1. Positive self talk
and 2. Visualization.
Positive Self-Talking
Instead of telling “you can’t do something”, tell yourself “you can
do it” Say these “I am a great person; I am valuable, I am good at
what I do, I am excited about my work, my goals and my life”.
Visualization includes:
Determining your end goal (actually seeing, touching, feeling and
experiencing the emotion of the goal). In this way you feel that you
have already achieved your goal as you are already experiencing it.

2. Love Your Job: Career development is a journey and every journey is
more enjoyable if you enjoy every step, enjoy the tasks, the people,
the environment and the opportunities. You can also undergo
professional training courses and this will help you enhance
knowledge and understanding and this in return will increase your
control and lastly you achieve a better balance. So it’s very important
to enjoy what you do or change what you do.
