How do you balance work and home life?
Balancing home and work like can be hard, especially when no one has taught you how to do so. For me I think admitting when you need a break is key. Taking the mental and emotional days off when you can to regroup and replenish your energy is important. You are not a machine but are a human-being and should treat yourself as such.
I know for me, a rest day is pivotal especially with trying to build a brand or business on top of already working a full time job and incorporating hobbies that I love, I have to find time for me, just me. A time for self-care and self-reassurance and self-regulation that lets me know it’s okay and that things will work out in the end even if I’m not fully at my best.
Having a healthy work life balance is importance because you can’t give your all to either side if you’re trying to give your all to everything at once. Some days you need those moments to just sit back and relax and enjoy the work you have laid out for yourself and enjoy the fruits of your labor, which is vital to our existence. I would say the best way to make sure you are getting enough balance is to incorporate 30-1hr of rest time that’s just for yourself to help you boost or regain some of that lost energy back, each day. Make time for yourself even if life says you can’t, you have to, it’s important to your wellbeing and should also be important to you.
