Considering the levels of high personal competitiveness in the workplace as a result of the globalization of the economy and the dizzying technological advancement in recent decades, it is common to experience a series of demands on our lives that influence other important aspects other than the workplace., such as family, our hobbies and personal activities.
How, then, can we find a satisfactory balance between the different aspects of our lives and the workplace?
In principle we must be aware of the different demands or demands that are being placed on our lives and recognize that surely we will not be able to satisfy them all. For this we must choose between several alternatives or strategies to better manage the two most valuable assets we have: our time and our personal dedication, let's see some of them:
- Defining clear borders between work and the rest of our lives, and simply not letting those borders be crossed, knowing that everything has its time and we must respect it. Eliminating borders between work and personal life is what the person who works in what he likes, however a weak point of this strategy is that it is very difficult to sustain over time if you have a dependent job.Develop more activities in less time, in an effort to maintain balance, We try to carry out as many activities as we can in the time available, a weak point of this strategy is that it requires a large amount of personal energy to be maintained, which generally results in high stress situations. quantity,both at work and in personal activities, the weak point in this strategy is that they hardly understand at work that there is not necessarily a linear relationship between effort and result, perhaps something similar will happen in family life and our personal activities. Setting clear priorities, I do not consider it difficult if you know exactly what you want. Therefore, it is important to know well what our personal Vision and Mission are, as well as our passions, in order to determine what is really important and what is not so important.I don't consider it difficult if you know exactly what you want.

In this sense, based on the aforementioned, if we want to find the desired Work-Personal Balance, we have to define exactly who we are and what we want to be, and how we want to live, and once we are clear about this, have sufficient discipline and courage to take actions necessary to achieve it.
