Work/Life Balance Is A Myth | Fast Company - 0 views

  • Work/Life Balance Is A Myth
    • Gary Patton
       
      You can defeat the myth of work-life balance by striving for "harmony" not mythical "balance" is what I've been teaching in my Stress Optimization program for over a decade! Because this so-called "new idea" is not accepted in the mainstream, you'll discover below a disclaimer saying that work-life balance as a myth "expresses the writer's view alone." Duh!
  • Doing what that guy in the photo was doing is impossible for more than a few minutes at a time.

      Working from home is the ideal way to overcome the MANY disadvantages in today's cruel marketplace of having a job-job! But, the emphasis needs to be on "working from home" ...not being a baby-sitter for your kids!
  • don’t say if no if you don’t have any leverage
    • Gary Patton
       
      I don't agree! If no needs to be said for you to be "on purpose": Say no ...regardless of your amount of leverage! Not learning how to say "no" wisely is one of the most dis-stress life-skill lacks from which many people suffer! But, ask some questions first around your options and choices when asked to do something so you not they retain control.

  • In practice, however, what I’ve seen is that people often invest that free time in doing more work.
    • Gary Patton
       
      This is another problem caused often by excessive "Type 'A' Behaviour" or "Work Addiction" (workaholism). It does not detract from the wisdom of hiring others to free up time for you for re-creation and relaxation.
  • Their identity is rooted in work, and that’s where they want to be. Outside of work, in the complex dance of family and community responsibilities, they lose their autonomy. Their professional expertise doesn’t mean much.
    • Gary Patton
       
      This is not a "faulty-assumption" about the work-life myth because these kinds of so-called leaders are sick and need help ...as a psycologist or psyciatrist would agree.
  • We need better ways to manage work-life boundaries, understanding that we are subject to phases, often dictated by events out of our control, in which our work lives and personal lives ebb and flow in their demands.
    • Gary Patton
       
      This is why I coach my clients that the key is to seek harmony, not perfection, in the context of a clear and written "life purpose" which promotes direction, focus and the context for "saying no"!
  • Shore up the home front
    • Gary Patton
       
      Don't be social. Be relevant in all your key relationships! Your family and friends are what life is all about. And major de-stressors for you when you practise harmony in this area as well.
  • f you feel overworked to the point that you complain about it constantly
    • Gary Patton
       
      This again results from the lack of a clear purpose and harmony in fulfilling it. Alternatievly, it may be greed which also is the lack of a reasonable life purpose because there's a lot more to life than more money! How many do you think on their death bed will share: "Gee, I wish I'd spent more time at the office!" Duh!!
  • Say “no” strategically
    • Gary Patton
       
      As I said above, it's impossible to say know wisely if you're unclear about your life purpose!
  • Quit complaining
  • Take control instead
    • Gary Patton
       
      You'll discover a helpful, short article on the benefits of having a mentor to help you develop a meaningful purpose statement for you and/or overcome the barriers blocking your harmony at http://is.gd/FCpmbl.
