One way to make time for both work and personal interests is to find creative ways to incorporate our passions into our job. For example, a colleague of mine who loves crafting handles all our office decorations during festive seasons - she’s doing what she loves and contributing to the workplace. For me, I enjoy public speaking, so I channel that passion by leading training sessions in the company. Another colleague love to makeup conducts grooming workshops for us. By blending personal interests with work, we bring fun and creativity into our routines and find a way to enjoy both worlds. It just takes a bit of creativity to integrate what we love into our professional lives. Think about it ??

Prioritizing your work will help you gain a better salary and progress in terms of position and this is what 99% of my clients did! If you want a better salary you need to prioritize work but mental health as well, they come hand in hand????

Finding time for both work and personal interests doesn’t have to be a struggle. A few tweaks can help you maintain balance: 1. Set Priorities - Block key work and personal activities in your calendar to protect time for both. 2. Time Block (my personal favourite) - Dedicate certain hours to focused work and others to personal interests, so each gets attention without overlap. 3. Simplify Tasks - Focus on high-impact work. Read Cal Newport’s Slow Productivity book where he suggests doing fewer things with greater focus. 4. Take Breaks - Small breaks keep your energy up, helping you stay productive and energised for personal time too. A balanced routine starts with simple shifts.

Prioritize by setting clear boundaries between work and personal time. Plan your schedule carefully, dedicating specific slots for both work tasks and personal activities. Learn to delegate where possible and practice saying no to tasks that aren’t essential. By managing your time effectively, you can maintain a healthy balance and ensure you stay energized for both work and personal passions. ???? Balance is not something you find; it’s something you create. — Sethunath, HRM
