Top Ten Tips for
Improving the Quality of Your Work Life !!
We all desire a work experience that can fit neatly with our personal
lives. We all seek balance. Too often however peoples' work life
overpowers the rest of their life. And when that happens, we can very
easily find ourselves struggling to keep up in all areas of our lives.
The following ten tips are designed to get you thinking. They apply as
much to the CEO as they do to the front line worker:
1)Have a personal vision of who you want to be and what you
want to do - keep in mind that if you do not have one for yourself,
you will likely become part of someone else's vision!
2)Test out your own personal vision with that of your
organization's - in how many ways do they support each other? Ask
questions to better understand your organization's mission, vision and
values.
3)Learn, and keep on learning - go to training sessions and
in-services, enroll in college courses, read books. Know why, not just
how.
4)Buddy-up - find ways to share the load with other team
members. Sharing the load makes work easier to manage and less
stressful.
5)Share your successes - this allows you to learn from the
successes of others, as well as giving you a boost when you need
6)Get it off your chest - talk things over with your buddy,
friend, supervisor when things trouble you, don't keep it bottled up
inside.
7)Find joy in being of service to others - think about how the
person you are serving is better off as a result of your work, and
rejoice in that knowledge.
8)Take time for breaks - pay particular attention to the need
to refresh body, mind and spirit.
9)Try out new ideas - to innovate is to grow. By using your
creativity and innovation life becomes exciting and fulfilling.
10)Have fun at work - laughter is the best medicine, but use
only appropriate humor. Damaging someone else's self-esteem for the
fun of it is no laughing matter.
