Stress, Balance and the Bad Day
It is normal to have an occasional bad day. It can almost seem like the best solution is starting over or simply giving up. That might make you feel better momentarily, but the quick instant gratification it can also lead to a very stressed out you.
Traveling the road least traveled and staying with your business plan can seem a very hard process to continue, but in the end, you will ultimately achieve more. When you find yourself struggling with a particular business goal, look at your personal life for guidance. Your business is directly tied with your personal life. When one area lacking or in some way is out of order, it can cause difficulty in all aspects of your business as well. An unresolved conflict with a spouse or child can leave you with somewhat less of your normal abilities to focus on the business at hand.
If you are the type to have a lot stress in your personal life, your business life will also suffer the stress. Some say stress is very negative all around. I believe some stress is necessary to keep you awake so to speak, but too much can and will leave you feeling rattled, tired, and possibly on the verge of a breakdown. Talking to the people you trust can help you develop techniques to help you manage this stress.
Anxiety and stress affects everyone in different ways. You can't be as productive when your worried about something. Extreme anxiety,stress or depression should be addressed by a professional. In some areas a life coach may be able to help you break the cycle. The can help you determine the causes of your anxieties and offer strategies to help cope with them.
Many of us lack the ability to focus. When work is piling up, it is easy to feel like your losing control, and become overwhelmed. Try to analyze which tasks are important and what is a waste of time. This can give you focus and help you develop strategies, goals and plans of action to accomplish the important duties.
Be sure to take care of yourself; how you feel directly relates to how your think and perform. Healthier eating choices and making time in your day for physical exercise can make tremendous differences in your performance.
Make the commitment to yourself to get organized. Set specific goals to help organize yourself. Talk to your colleagues about how they manage the areas you find yourself lacking in. You will find we all have tricks and tips to keep up with the things we need and do daily.
Once you have achieved balance in your personal life, you will find you have done the same in your work life, as well
