Balancing Work and Family
Keep Your Job, Your Family, and Your Sanity
Successful people don’t trade personal
satisfaction for professional achievement. They
know high performance depends on both. You work
hard all day at work and then go home—to the
second shift—the one you don’t get paid for. To
avoid the peaks and valleys of productivity
created by balancing the urgent demands of work
and personal life, professionals must be able to
balance both without sacrificing either. When
you discover the right mix of time and
accomplishment in both arenas, you’ll rediscover
vision, vitality, and meaning in your life!
