Working really hard and being super invested in reaching your goals is NOT the path to your dream career. That's just some bad Kool Aid you've been drinking. This ethos, also known as Workism, is a fast track to burnout. If you really want to feel fulfilled, try these tips to add more joy to your life and watch your career (finally) take off with your quality of life intact.
- Eliminate tasks that don;t have a high ROI for your time investment. Remember that self care is also a high ROI investment.
- Care less. Leave your ego and its hyper-vigilance for anything that might threaten you behind. Assume positive intent and get more positive responses back.
- Reframe situations to see lessons learned or clarity gained instead of focusing on what you might lose.
- Stop defending your perspective and let everyone be right. Arguing wastes energy that could be spent on creative pursuits.
- Ask yourself what the most fun thing you could do- and give yourself permission to do it. This resources you and helps you maintain healthy boundaries.
