People usually find that their planners are skewed towards one role—most often it is the work role.
How do I use my time so that I can survive and ultimately thrive to meet my physical and financial needs?
Our time management tool can be just a survival tool—how to survive at work and how to survive at home.
Some planners have components to balance the different roles in their lives, But it seldom happens.
The more time and effort that is spent to organize and complete career goals, The more their other priorities become neglected, From taking care of oneself, Caring for one's family, To nurturing other important relationships and roles.
There is another usually unintended consequences of having a disproportionate amount of attention, Time and planning devoted towards one role.
Though we may profess that our work is not our life, When we put that much emphasis on one role, It becomes that much easier to make work the center of our lives, Even if that is not our intention.
Somewhere along the way, The other roles (Even family roles) can become mere distractions.
In a conversation with work colleagues, One of them commented that there is nothing easi easier than being a workaholic.
You have one area of focus, Where you can excel and are rewarded for excellence.
There is not the need to mentally and emotionally shift your attention to other roles and responsibilities on a daily basis.
It is also easy to rationalize the need to just keep on working, Citing “Responsibilities at work” And “We need the money” or “the sacrifice now will help us get what we ultimately want later.”
Yes, Our time management tool has th the ability to help us focus on work.
Unfortunately, The kind of time-management tool can indefinitely keep us focused on work as well.
Being a workaholic is a simpler life, But not a completely fulfilling or balanced one.
