Sarah is a highly effective Michael Gallup Womens Jersey , multitasking business professional with a strong passion for her work. She is also a loving and caring mother of three kids. Sarah is happily married to an equally busy man. They have lots of friends and an active life outside work. It sounds too good to be true! How does she manage?


Some years ago Sarah was overwhelmed, frustrated, constantly tired and ready to stop her professional dreams. She worked over 60 hours per week, and tried desperately to catch up with dead lines and projects, meetings blended with business travel. She had difficulties to deliver in time, her occupational stress level was high and her job motivation was low. Sarah's performance declined. Her life was going in a downward Leighton Vander Esch Womens Jersey , steep spiral. She was close to loosing her job, and to get a divorce, all at the same time, and she felt miserable.


Sarah didn't want to give up. She understood she needed help to sort out the different parts in her life. She learned the 3 key secrets to how to solve career burnout:


Secret #1: Sarah started with herself. By identifying her life goals and how she wanted to live her life she got a much clearer picture of her values and what was important to her. She focused on what was fun, and how she felt when she engaged in different tasks. Things that didn't feel good, she decided to delegate. She got clear in her strength and her true brilliance and when she incorporated that into her daily activities Demarcus Lawrence Womens Jersey , life and work immediately started to go smoother.


Secret #2: Living authentically is important to Sarah and she learned the keys to authentic communications, where there is no room for blame and conflicts. This had an impact in her professional life, as well as her private life. When she could communicate with her colleagues and team what she expected, and together they build their vision around the work to be done, the whole team got new energy and could perform from a higher level.


Secret #3: Sarah decided that all parts of her were important. If she didn't feel good and was happy with her life, she decided that her family and children would suffer as well. Once she had the basic foundation laid (step 1 and 2) it was time for her to take care of herself Amari Cooper Womens Jersey , and her own personal and spiritual development. She decided to focus only on doing things that she really enjoyed doing, and the things she was a genius at. Once she got going her brilliance accelerated and not only is she reaping career success, she also has more money she could dream of.


The journey was not on a highway, it was more on a bumpy road. Sarah decided that SHE was important and that she wanted to take charge over her life and career. Sarah decided she needed support, and not from anyone in the close family. She felt, even though they loved her deeply Dak Prescott Womens Jersey , they had their own involvement in her decisions. Her coach was neutral and could help her gain clarity and focus.


Sarah's biggest challenge is still coping with stress at work, and to keep her life balance at the same time. The difference is that she now comes from a different place within. Sarah is grounded within herself and makes decisions based on what she loves to do, and what she does with ease, without effort and pain.


Don't think that this is only possible for Sarah! It is possible for you too! I know, because I've worked with so many clients with the same kind of history as Sarah. And, in fact Ezekiel Elliott Womens Jersey , I've been there myself. Take action now, and do something that will have an impact on your own work life balance!

The last 4 weeks I lost 8 pounds. Finally.


For most of my life, I have always been weight challenged. I always joke when I eat a little bit less that I am on diet. When friends asked me since when I had been dieting, I would smile and say Emmitt Smith Womens Jersey , "since thirty years ago".


Indeed, almost every year, I swore I would take off a few pounds, but every year, it seems that resolution went out of the window ( I would safely bet that now three weeks after new year, half of most people's new years' resolutions are already conveniently forgotten or abandoned).


Is it that hard to lose weight? Not really. We all know how. The reason it never happens is that I never got down to focusing on it. Something always come in ( great food Tony Pollard Jersey , busyness, lazyness, etc) that oftens distracts and interferes with this goal.


I have always been able to accomplish my educational and business goals. Because I focus on it. But I guess the weight loss objective have always been like many people's business and professional goal. They want to be rich, but their way of accomplishing it is by way of a vague, "maybe I will hit it in the lottery, or maybe I will meet a rich financier or uncle that will take a gamble with my talents." sort of thing. Nothing concrete Connor McGovern Jersey , nothing focused, just one of those dozen things that you hope will happen to you. Like maybe some great drug company will invent a drug that will allow you to lose weight without any exercise or diet.... sort of thing.


And that is where we fail.


Do we know the way to wealth? the way to happiness? Yes, we all know the way -- we just don't have the focus and discipline to travel it.
