1 Define your boundaries

One of the first steps to avoid letting your career in personal development overshadow your personal life is to define your boundaries. Boundaries are the limits you set for yourself and others regarding what you are willing and not willing to do, accept, or tolerate. Boundaries help you protect your time, energy, values, and well-being. For example, you can set boundaries around your working hours, your communication channels, your rates, your services, and your expectations. By defining your boundaries, you can communicate them clearly to your clients, colleagues, and partners, and avoid overcommitting, overdelivering, or overstepping.

2 Prioritize your self-care

Another key step to balance your career and personal life is to prioritize your self-care. Self-care is the practice of taking care of your physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual needs. Self-care helps you recharge your batteries, reduce your stress, enhance your mood, and boost your performance. For example, you can practice self-care by getting enough sleep, eating well, exercising regularly, meditating, journaling, or doing something you enjoy. By prioritizing your self-care, you can prevent burnout, increase your resilience, and improve your quality of life.

Perdemos el equilibrio personal y profesional cada vez que nos olvidamos de nosotros. Cada vez que sentimos que "los temas de los demás son más importantes", cada vez que decimos "lo mío puede esperar" o lo que yo quiero "lo puedo hacer después". Perdiendo nuestro equilibrio. La clave para empezar a revertir esto y lograr nuestro equilibrio es empezar a trabajar en nuestro valor. Ya que solo dejamos para el final o para después, aquello que creemos que es lo menos valioso.. Por el contrario, cuando nos sentimos valiosos, no dudamos de que merecemos estar dentro de nuestra lista de prioridades, tener tiempo para nosotros, para lo que necesitamos, manteniendo nuestro equilibrio.

3 Schedule your downtime

A third step to prevent your career in personal development from overshadowing your personal life is to schedule your downtime. Downtime is the time you spend away from work, doing something relaxing, fun, or meaningful. Downtime helps you unwind, decompress, and reconnect with yourself and others. For example, you can schedule your downtime by planning a vacation, a weekend getaway, a hobby, a date night, or a family activity. By scheduling your downtime, you can create a healthy rhythm between work and play, and enjoy both aspects of your life more.

4 Delegate or outsource

A fourth step to achieve a better balance between your career and personal life is to delegate or outsource some of your tasks. Delegating or outsourcing means entrusting someone else with some of the responsibilities or activities that are not essential, enjoyable, or profitable for you. Delegating or outsourcing helps you free up some time, energy, and resources for the things that matter most to you. For example, you can delegate or outsource some of your administrative, technical, or marketing tasks to a virtual assistant, a freelancer, or a service provider. By delegating or outsourcing, you can focus on your core competencies, your unique value proposition, and your strategic goals.

5 Review and adjust

A fifth step to avoid letting your career in personal development overshadow your personal life is to review and adjust your situation regularly. Reviewing and adjusting means evaluating your current state of balance, identifying what is working and what is not, and making the necessary changes to improve your alignment. Reviewing and adjusting helps you stay on track, adapt to changing circumstances, and optimize your outcomes. For example, you can review and adjust your situation by setting aside some time every week, month, or quarter to reflect on your achievements, challenges, and opportunities, and to update your plans, actions, and strategies accordingly. By reviewing and adjusting, you can maintain a dynamic and flexible balance that suits your needs and preferences.

Be honest with yourself is critical in this step because the society and work culture might give you a false sense of norm vs what you truly prefer. Under the hustle and grind culture, you may feel you need to do the same in order to secure a job or prove your value to yourself and others. That often leads to burnout, dissatisfaction at work and it does not guarantee your job is safe either. And in the end there is always a price to pay for not being honest to yourself, whether that's health or relationships or something else more important than work. Work is just a part of life. Take the time to reflect wisely and honestly.

Get really clear on your priorities, across your entire life, not just professional or personal priorities or separate lists. Seeing your whole-of-life priorities in one place will make it clear where you have conflicts and where your actions and behaviors don't align to those priorities and need to be adjusted. Personal development is important, so is your career, ofcourse, but there are also many other facets to your health and wellbeing that you need to balance. Those clear priorities will help you say no to anything that doesn't align and free up your time, energy and focus on the things most important to you, personally and professionally, to create the balance you desire.
