Work hard, break up the routine and have fun
Work hard, break up the routine and have fun. It is this change in scenery that could bring you the new perspective and energy you have been seeking for.
Sharing workload “evenly”
While it is impractical to have a perfect balance of work and responsibilities for many reasons, it is important to be mindful of distribution and proactively be intentional as to how work gets done.
Work for your future self
Focus on establishing your major goals and accomplishments in life and reverse engineer the steps you need to take to be able to get there one day.
