Achieving Work-Life Balance: Tips and Strategies for Success

“The key to a successful life is balance, balance in all things, balance in work and play, balance in personal and professional life.” – anonymous

What do you do when the flood gates of new business burst wide open?

An influx of business can be both a blessing and a challenge, especially if you are trying to balance it with personal relationships and home life. Here are a few tips for dealing with an influx of business while maintaining a healthy work-life balance:

  1. Set clear boundaries: Make sure to set clear boundaries around your work hours and let your clients and colleagues know when you are available and when you are not. This can help you avoid feeling overwhelmed and burnt out.
  2. Delegate tasks: Don’t be afraid to delegate tasks to others, whether it’s to employees, subcontractors, or even family members. This can help lighten your workload and allow you to focus on the most important tasks.
  3. Take breaks: It’s important to take breaks and recharge, especially during times of high stress. Make sure to set aside time for yourself and for your personal relationships.
  4. Prioritize self-care: Remember to take care of yourself both physically and mentally. This may include getting enough sleep, eating well, exercising, and taking time for activities that bring you joy and relaxation.
  5. Communicate with your loved ones: Make sure to keep the lines of communication open with your loved ones and let them know how you are feeling and what you need from them. It’s important to have their support and understanding during this busy time.
  6. Create a schedule: Develop a schedule that allows you to prioritize your work and personal commitments. This can help you stay on top of your responsibilities and ensure that you are making time for the things that matter most to you.
  7. Learn to say “no”: It can be difficult to turn down new business or projects, but it’s important to know your limits and not take on more than you can handle. Saying “no” can help you avoid burnout and ensure that you are able to deliver high-quality work on the projects you do take on.
  8. Automate and streamline tasks: Look for ways to automate and streamline tasks to save time and reduce stress. For example, you can use software to handle invoicing and other repetitive tasks, allowing you to focus on more important work.
  9. Make use of technology: Utilize technology to stay connected with your team and clients, even when you’re not in the office. This can help you work more efficiently and reduce the need for face-to-face meetings.
  10. Take time off: Regularly schedule time off to disconnect from work and recharge your batteries. This can be a day off, a weekend getaway, or a longer vacation. The key is to disconnect from work and allow yourself to relax and recharge.

Use your coach to assist you to identify the underlying causes of work-life imbalance, such as overwork, unrealistic expectations, or lack of boundaries.

A coach can help the person to develop the skills and mindset necessary for achieving a better balance between work and life. The key is to work together to identify the underlying causes of the imbalance, create a plan for addressing those causes, and provide ongoing support and guidance to help the person stay on track.

A New Way To Think About Purpose

I attended an event this past weekend where there were 16 passionate speakers, many of them were TEDx speakers.

A majority of the speakers were pointing to the fact that if people don’t have a purpose they’re prone to loneliness, depression and a lack of meaning in their lives.

As I engaged with fellow participants, there was a  both a palatable anxiousness and/or excitement in people’s desire to find their purpose.

Like purpose is somehow the missing link to a high quality life experience.

You see the presenters made a logical and compelling presentation with regards to human suffering, and finding your purpose was offered as a prescription to living a better life than the one they are currently living.

Time to Reflect

So my question is,

Is it true people need to find and live their purpose in order to have a high quality life?

I would like to encourage you to explore purpose for yourself.

1. What does purpose look like to you?

2. What are your ideas about purpose?

3. What do all human being share in common when it comes to purpose?

And The Most Miserable People Are…

In my own personal experience along with my experience of working with hundreds and hundreds of people over the last 25 years.

What I’ve discovered is people in search of purpose or in the pursuit of happiness are some of the most miserable and anxious people I’ve ever met.

So here’s the problem as I see it, people have innocently made  purpose a thing.

Purpose is not a thing, it’s actually a feeling.

And it is this feeling that has the power to guide people through life, helping them navigate the up’s and down’s.

Here’s the real problem, human suffer and struggle and have a wide range of human experiences. This is true.

The problem is human beings don’t know the source of their experience.

And if they did they would stop looking outside of themselves for prescriptions to live a better life that alone would improve their quality of life.

Most people are looking at purpose as a prescription for living a better life.

Once they find their purpose, align with their purpose and live their purpose their life will be more rewarding and fulfilling is their logic.

The problem is that’s not how purpose and meaning actually works.

Looking for your purpose creates the same amount of anxiety as a lost set of car keys, it makes people really anxious and stressed out.

It also bums people out for the fact that they don’t know something or have lost something.

When people get bummed out they typically start to blame themselves or make themselves wrong for the fact that they’ve lost their car keys and in this case they have lost their purpose or their purposes has some how eluded them.

Finding, aligning, in living your purpose is not the solution to a low quality of life.

Looking In New Direction

What is necessary is understanding the human experience.

What matters most is to understand where your experience is actually coming from.

When people stop anxiously searching for their purpose but instead spend more time understanding the nature of life and the nature of the human experience what people often find is that their purpose finds them.

Natures Clue

I often share the following analogy with people about purpose.

Honey bees wake up every morning thinking that their purpose in life is to harvest nectar and make honey.

When in truth a honey bee’s greater purpose is at a 90 degree angle of their honey making intention.

You could say that the honey bees real purpose is to cross pollinate.

Human beings are like money bees. Waking up each day chasing the nectar of life to make money.

And if human beings would simply, stop, reflect and look in a new direction, they too would see that they are already part of a much greater purpose.

You already have a purpose but you just looking in the wrong direction.

I am on a mission to help people stop searching for things outside of themselves and commit to looking within as their primary goal in life.

Clarity Is The Answer To Anxiety

People think they know what they want and they think they know what they’re trying to accomplish, but often they don’t.

As a coach, one of my jobs is to help people get clear about what they want and what they are trying to accomplish.

You’d think that my job was pretty easy, straight forward and simple, right?

Here’s the problem, people THINK they know what they want. People THINK they know what they are trying to accomplish.

But, I gotta tell you people don’t know either and it becomes painfully obvious to witness people struggling to answer two simple questions.

  1. What do you really want?
  2. What are you trying to accomplish? 

So, when I ask these two questions of both prospective clients and existing clients, it amazes me how difficult this is for people. People are like deers looking into head lights.

A big part of what makes coaching powerful is asking people reflective questions. Reflective questions are what help people wake up to what they really want.

Reflection is the key to clarity and often requires the help of another.

Here’s what I’ve discovered when asking people what they really want, people are often like deer looking into headlights with many of them responding with “I really don’t know”.

Okay, that’s a problem.

Now, I had an insight recently that there actually needs to be a question before the first two questions.

It’s what I call question zero.

0. Do you know what you want?

Okay, now you’re either going to say yes or no, and if you say yes, I’m going to say, great, tell me what you want.

I want people to see the fact that they think they know what they want, they think they know what they’re trying to accomplish, but they don’t.

Lack of clarity is a huge problem for people but critical when running a business.

Here is a simple reflective practice that will help you gain the clarity you’ve been looking for.

The Clarity Process

Ask yourself these two questions over and over again for a minimum of 15 minutes.

  1. What am I trying to accomplish?

2. What is standing in the way of me accomplishing that?

3. Repeat 1 and 2 Continue for minimum of 15 minutes.

You can do this in a journal but it’s a 100 times more powerful to do it with a friend or your coach.

This reflective practices will help you cut through the noise and start focusing on what really matters, waking you up to clarity, direction and motivation.

Clearly your,

Fastest Way To Increase Productivity Is Employee Engagement

I was recently published in a Hubstaff article on my thoughts with regards to employee engagement. Here is what I said.

You can hire people’s hands, but you must win people’s heart.

In order to win people’s hearts, you must teach them that engagement is innate and already within them.

One of the biggest mistakes employers make is trying to maximize productivity on the backs and hands of their employees.

Of course, this is shortsighted.

Unfortunately, most experts of employee engagement offer prescriptive or strategic ways to manage and control employees to increase engagement.

Why is employee engagement such a hot topic?

It’s because employers are finally waking up to the fact that low morale is in direct proportion with the employee’s lack of engagement.

And, we all know poor morale is not good for the bottom line.

Here’s the secret when it comes to employee engagement.

Human beings are born to be engaged.

We have an innate ability to find value and meaning in whatever we throw ourselves into.

So, what gets in the way of this innate ability? Self-doubt, second-guessing, and excessive feelings of pressure to perform.

All the above could be summarized in the fact that the employee is drowning in troublesome thought.

The solution is helping the employee get out from underneath problematic thinking.

How Greg helps cultivate a productivity mindset

We work with individuals and teams helping them understand the essence underneath human capital via a transformational conversation delivered over the course of three-to-four days.

We teach people a new way to think about what really drives motivation, engagement, and success.

Our teachings are based on one simple truth about how the mind works, which leads to a vast array of powerful and positive changes.

This inside-out understanding of where people’s experience is coming from holds the key to a satisfying, successful, and inspiring work life.

For example, when we look at engagement from an outside-in approach it would look like the organization, management, or boss is responsible for the employees’ job satisfaction and feelings of engagement.

With an inside-out understanding, the employee takes 100% responsibility for where their moment-to-moment experience is coming from.

With just a little bit of understanding, the employee stops blaming and making excuses for work/life experiences.

When employees get out from underneath extraneous problematic thinking they are naturally more engaged.

Employees who make the link between engagement and enjoyment are obviously happier and more productive employees.

An Interview with San Diego Voyager

Today we’d like to introduce you to Greg Clowminzer.

Greg, let’s start with your story. We’d love to hear how you got started and how the journey has been so far.

I was a stressed-out young professional who was disillusioned with my career path and lifestyle back in the day. I was on a fast track at the time and became a partner and vice president of a commercial investment real estate company specializing in sales and acquisition of multi-family properties. I was very active in the community and held several leadership positions at both a local and state level.

The good news is I was making a decent living which afforded me to invest in myself. As I begin learning about myself and what made me tick and I started to get really excited about what I was learning and couldn’t wait to share it with others. Although I was quite shocked that others didn’t share my same enthusiasm for my new understandings. Read more
