or
rest time because it is not physiologically possible.
Strictly
family on weekends! Resolve to make Saturdays and Sundays strictly
for family time. And stick to this!
Get
some food in! Make sure
you get food in
your stomach.
Workaholics are known to
be food-skippers. If you can’t afford to get off your
desk or from doing paperwork, have food delivered to you. It’s
always a good idea if you have crackers on your drawer to ease the
hunger pangs.
Confine
work! Resolve to confine work in your office. Don’t bring work
to your home! Keep those files in your office desk where they
belong. Keep them there until the next day when you start work.
Practice working only within your working hours. If you have an
eight-to-five working schedule, stick to it.
Work
up those muscles! Exercise, exercise, exercise! Set aside at least
an hour each day or every other day for exercise. Your body needs
to be conditioned ,and working non-stop isn’t going to give it
the proper physical conditioning it needs. Since most workaholics
tend to have their behinds stuck on their chairs, it’s even more
important that you get some exercise.
Make
a plan! Plan your day. Work on only
one or two
things at a time. Make out a list of priorities. Write down things
that need to be worked on immediately or are urgent; keeping the
least ones at the bottom of your list. After you've done this, be
guided by this list. Turning this activity into a habit will also
help you manage your time better, be more organized, and
accomplish more.
Work
to live! Always
keep in mind that
you work so you can live and have a comfortable life.
Always remember that you don't live to work. Working
is just one
of the many useful and fruitful
activities. Don't make work your life
If
you start following the tips outlined today, then you've just
taken the first-step to living
a healthy, successful
and happy life!
