5 Tips for Better Work-Life Balance - 0 views

  •  
    Work_Life Balance All
  •  
    Another quick list of work-life balance ideas. I use the early wake-up plan myself and find that those 2 or 3 hours before the rest of the family awakes can be really productive. I also like to exercise at mid-day while most of my colleagues eat lunch. I find it easier to eat lunch piece-meal before and after my workout. I think it keeps my energy more even throughout the day.

The superwoman fallacy: what it really takes to be an academic and parent - 0 views

  •  
    "You'll spot that I haven't mentioned 'work-life balance'. I don't believe in it. There are only 24 hours in a day, and it's all my life. My work is my life, my home is my life, my family is my life and my addiction to mid-century Belgian ceramics on eBay is also my life."

    I am certainly interested in having children while I pursue a career in academia. I enjoyed this article because it was a refreshing departure from the usual negativity associated with the topic. Obviously being a parent and an academic are not mutually exclusive titles, so here's someone who talks about how she does it!

Off Balance On Purpose: The Future of Engagement and Work-Life Balance - 0 views

  •  
    So this is a TED talk- very interesting perspective. I have been listening and reading to different ideas of how this work/life balance isn't something we need to achieve, that it is not achievable, or practical for that matter. But by accepting that "off-balance" with a purpose and direction is reality and is how you achieve success then you will be more successful in the areas of your life that is important to you. It is all about your purpose. It an interesting idea- I wonder what people think...

The Mom Penalty - 0 views

  •  
    This definitely strikes a chord, its one of those things I was told I had to choose between if I wanted to go for my PhD: family or career- and by female faculty members! I won't spoil the article, but I agree- babies do matter in the academic career of women.

Santa Clara University Report on Work-Life Balance Study - 0 views

  •  
    This is a report on a study that was conducted on the work-life balance at SCU. As expected, the study includes surveys and interviews. I am impressed that an administration would care so much that they would spend the resources on conducting a study on w0rk-life balance.

OECD Better Life Index - 0 views

  •  
    Provides a index to compare life balance across OECD countries. The US appears in the hardest working third of the profile, which is unsurprising. It would be interesting to find a comparison of productivity.
