Work Life balance

Work Life balance is a concept including proper prioritizing between work and lifestyle (healthpleasure, family) and is the genuine requirement in today’s fast running life. There are certain break training paths and programmes that endeavors and brings elusive balance in every individual’s life. The nuances shared in his programmes throw open a whole new world of possibilities waiting to be tapped. 

Most of the working professionals already have a good grasp on the meaning of achievement. But when we explore the concept of enjoyment a little more, achievements and enjoyments are the two faces of same coin, one cannot have one without the other. Trying to live a one sided life is why so many "Successful" people are not happy, or not nearly as happy as they should be.

Although there is a priority list but seldom does one prioritize the family and loved ones in the very list? Sometimes people get stuck into work which they might not enjoy; this leads to frustration and disenchantment. Drawing pleasure from one’s work is a pre requisite of a happy life. So the most important thing one should focus on to keep oneself lively and happy in choosing the right job. It’s all about settling in a profession which fuels the passion and stimulates your heart and mind. Balance is achieved when one knows about how you spend your hours; life is too short and hours too scarce not to follow your passion.

With every individual, work-life balance varies over time; the right balance for today will probably be different for tomorrow. The right balance for an individual is when one is single and will be different when one marries, or at the time when one have their children; when one starts a new career versus when you are nearing retirement. The best work-life balance is different for everyone because all have different priorities and different lives. However, at the core of an effective work-life balance definition are two key everyday concepts that are relevant to each of working professionals, their daily Achievements, enjoyments and ideas almost deceptive in their simplicity.
An individual will never get satisfied with their work until them makes themselves satisfied with life. An individual always needs to balance and keep a track on what is important at what time. Achievements are not only what one wants to achieve in our work, but achievements are what one needs to achieve from the life. At the end, the person achieves the task at work to ultimately achieve the things he/she wants to derive from his life. Therefore one should adopt the skills of balancing work life to ultimately live the life he/she desires. The success focuses on to bring out that hidden thrill and adventure in one’s life which has faded away in unbalanced busy life.

While work holds penultimate importance in life, one needs to also make a conscious choice to make room for hobbies and personal time. Since family dinners or a quiet engagement with loved one are few occasion that fountains of perpetual happiness that bring balance to our otherwise stressed life. AK Mishra’s Art of Success pragmatically blends pleasure and work to achieve the work life balance.
