Work/Life Balance: Work/Life Advice Now The Recession Is Receding
October 30th, 2009
These practical tips are adapted from comments by personal branding consultant Alan Weiss.
• Don’t try to restore everything you cut, but do restore your highest priorities.
• Analyse some things you’re doing without to see if you really need them, even in better times.
• Start to treat yourself more. Make this a high priority.
• Learn the lesson, and assume this will happen again some time. How can you prepare better in good times? Our economy has always had recessions, and every single one has ended.
• In your business, focus on those segments which have stayed strong and also those with the greatest “catapult” effect for rapid growth.
• If you worked extra hours during tough times, now you should plan a holiday.
• Accommodate two essential elements in your professional plans: marketing and self-development.
• Identify everyone who did you a favour (someone who extended credit, a banker who didn’t call in a loan, a neighbour who was gracious) during tough times, and reciprocate (refer people to them, give them business, buy a gift).
