Work / Life Balance

A few simple rules below, if followed will allow for a more fulfilling lifestyle. What are the ten things you value most in your everyday life? Send me an email to let me know and I'll compile the list accordingly. In the meantime, please read the below for an idea.

1. Respect yourself for everything about you..all the hard work that you do, all that you know, all the help and love that you give people, all the food that you cook, all the washing that you do, etc.

2. Ensure that everyone around you thanks and respects you for everything that you do for them

3. Realise that it is absolutely necessary to have time for yourself and that life is not about being at the beck and call of everyone else

4. Create a support team of family, friends, other working mums (or dads), work colleagues who can act as your idea bank, support team, thanking team, shopping team, etc and you can do the same things for them

5. Make sure that your internal voice is your Number One FAN and is continuously saying great things about you OUT LOUD… you really are fantastic

6. Get some exercise ..walk the dog/kids/partner or join a health club or go swimming

7. Find someone else who can act as your buddy and you can be his or hers through the good and bad times, either on the phone or face to face.

8. Identify what are your main interests and passions …. relax doing them and if possible do them as your job… your job will then not be a job but your passion.

9. Make a list of all those things that need to be done around the house and niggle/annoy you because you never get round to them …. asterisk those things that someone else could do and then one by one, bit by bit get someone to do them for you whilst you relax by doing the things you love doing.

10. Identify the goals you want to achieve in life and get a Coach to help you reach them.
