Work life balance is a
concept including proper prioritizing between work (career and ambition) and
lifestyle (health, pleasure, leisure, family and spiritual development/meditation).
It is a concept that supports the efforts of employees to split their time and
energy between work and the other important aspects of their lives. It is a
daily effort to make time for family, friends, community participation,
spirituality, personal growth, self-care, and other personal activities in
addition to the demands of workplace. Effective work-life balance encourages
employees to work harder and discourage them from quitting their jobs. Work life
balance means something different to every individual, but health and career
experts share some tips to help you find the balance that’s right for you. The
key to avoid burning is to let go of perfectionism, says executive coach
Marilyn Puder-York PhD, who wrote the official Survival Guide. As life gets
more expanded its very hard both neurologically and psychologically to bring
perfection. She recommend dedicating a few chunks of time each week to self
-care, whether its exercise, yoga or meditation. First identify what is most
important in your life and then draw firm boundaries’ so you can devote quality
time to these high priority people and activities.
Puder-York concluded the
work life balance by saying that “When I talk about balance, it does not mean
completion and achievement of every task, but it mean that you will get a time
for self care, so that your body, mind and soul are being refreshed.”
