Hey everyone,
Here’s some food for thought. Have you always thought that you’ve mainly worked for “the man”?
In other words, you are working along with the schedule that is given to you, and you are just living from paycheck to paycheck.
All of a sudden, you find that you’re just stuck in a cove without anywhere to go.
You find that your life cannot be enjoyed as you would like, and your life is just about work, work, and work…
Do you say that you’re a workaholic? I said that to myself once before, but later on, that won’t matter too much anymore. Eventually, you’ll start to realize that you will want to grow out of this.
Myself however? I like to work consistently. Sometimes, I’ll have slow days to learn about other things. At the same time, I’ll make sure that things do get done.
I’ve developed a system for myself to do this. One of them is via time management. This enables me to live the life I want in my own terms most of the time. One example is I just took on biking and really like it, and therefore I’ll find some time for that too.
Let’s be honest here. Everybody has to work. However, we need to think about work differently.
We should treat our colleagues and leads as friends. Always have a nice presence, but also be firm. You also know your role, and going forward you should do it.
At the same time, don’t overdo it to the point of getting yourself killed, but just enough to the point where you feel it’s time to stop and leave it for the next day.
After that, get to your hobby, whether it will be working out at the gym, to shopping for groceries, etc….
And if that workplace won’t give that to you, then I would suggest to start looking elsewhere. As for me however, I’m happy where I am located. If you’re happy, it’ll just benefit you in the long run.
Therefore, we should always note that there’s always a limit to everything, but this process will make it to perfection.
Until next time!
Brian.
