It is all about our list of priorities and first we should define our life.Contentment in the work we're doing is also vital that helps us do our best.Self talk really helps to bounce back confidently and increases our productivity is what I've learned.Thank you Brian!
I personally use your ABC method Brian for time management. I would consider you as one of the "guru's" on the subject of time management. The ABC method is amazing for productivity - with this system already in place and arriving to work 1 hour before my scheduled start time, I have been able to be more flexible with my social life. And of course I am now paid more and well respected within my company. Thank you as always Brian for your quality material.
01:13 he say that poor people work 20, 10 or zero hours a week. This is a typical conclusion by wealthy people. Poverty is "their own fault" and because they are lazy. The truth is poor people often have two or three jobs because of their slave contracts and slave salary.
I saw this from a different perspective based on his explanation of where our time goes. I assumed he was walking about *productive* hours during the week, not total work hours.
Thank you Brian for your videos! My work life balance is based on simplifying. The less things that fill up my life, the more focused effort I can put on the few important things that matters.
As an entrepreneur I find it's similar but different. We have a harder time drawing a distinct line between life and work, especially if we work from home. If we love what we do, it's even harder to shut it off. This is why I teach my clients to focus on MEETING NEEDS, not striving for balance. When our needs are met, we naturally feel a sense of harmony. It's tuning into and understanding what are needs and noticing when they are being neglected that takes some practice.
1. Use Power of positive affirmations. “I am excellent at time management” I use my time well” 2. Visualize your time management skills (picture times of you working through you’re biggest project) 3. Take action based on visualization.
Work life balance is one of the toughest things i've learned. I was obsessed with work in my youth, first to arrive last to leave. 40, 60, 80+ hours a week. It is all I ever wanted to do. I loved & excelled at it. But you can only burn the candle a both ends so long. Health suffered, eventually developed tough medical issues that I still struggling with. Now at 45 I learned the best balance for me is Wife first, kids, health & then work. Work more effectively, keep your passion & drive, just don't do it at the cost of your health.
Brian you once told me that balance doesn't exist for the super-achiever. And that you have to have a deliberate imbalance in your life. Works for me every time. Thanks Brian.
I started to work more from 3 to now 6 days a week doing my regular part time job, upgrading my skills, starting my own real estate business and feel I'm more balanced in regards to time waisters....Idle talk is cut to a minimum so I can focus more. It's working with the exception of factoring in fun...always room for improvement.
A great video and explanation Brian. I work for myself, and from home most of the time, so I don't have anyone else to distract me but I require a lot of self discipline to concentrate and stay focused to avoid procrastination. I achieve this by writing a list of things I need to accomplish the next day, before I go to bed (advice I received from yourself in another video). Thanks Brian.
HOLY ASJSKAJFJKS,literally last night i was googling "How to achieve work-life balance" and didnt find anything useful. THIS CAME RIGHT ON TIME, WHAT A BLESSING.
Great advice Brian. If we want to achieve work-life balance, managing our time is key. We have to become time experts in order to improve the quality of life.
Thank you sir fir sharing ur views. But to the point on spending 60mins for lunch with friends actually relaxes our mind for sometime amidst the continuous work. Actually speaking continuously working 8hrs a day with less break hrs will make our mind tight enough to even breathe freely. Especially WFH at this pandemic situation has ruined our personal lives by working all the time for ofc stuff.
I absolutely agree with your words about balancing our life. You say really wise things. I have always believed that time management is at the core of success in life. I share your point of view that people are wasting too much time. I've also tried your tips to achieve work-life balance. My favourite is positive affirmations. I can tell that it really works!
I am a student but I feel that this really applies to everyone. In my opinion, the hardest part about work is getting started and following through during those first few minutes. Once you get the ball rolling, work is relatively easy. Getting the ball to start rolling and getting it up to speed, however, is difficult (at least for me). I've found that when I choose to avoid homework by doing an activity of a more productive nature, rather than something mindless like playing a video game or watch RUclips videos, I can use the energy that I've put forth toward my recreational activity and transfer it into my homework to achieve a jump-start for lack of a better term. I guess what I'm trying to say is that it's important to do warm-ups if you have difficulty getting started on projects. Just try to get the ball rolling and don't spend too much time on that recreational activity. Once you feel productive, move on to your work as soon as you can so you can get done and move on.
Thanks so much for your continuing work, Brian. I've enjoyed listening to you and reading your books since the early 1990s and your message has helped me immensely.
brian has rightly said that work balance depends on your own goals....so it would be tilted just in favour of work. but we shud try to spend some quality time with the family too
At 3:29 - "Here are 4 tips for time management" - Tip #4, Save 25% of your time by not doing your work - for example, only provide 3 tips when you clearly said 4. Your audience won't recognize and you'll get credit for doing 25% more work!
Great video :) For me work-life balance mean : Acheaving a state that my work is not feeling as work, that my money work for me and that I am not working for the money and I am building my dream not the dream of another person.
I'm currently reading "The One Thing that Leads to Extraordinary Results" and in one chapter it talks about how work life balance doesn't exist. It's all about priorities. Great video! Title was a little misleading though
this ways to achieve Work-Life Balance can be afford if there is also the Basic income system in association to this program for the porest people too for example then it will work on for all
I just save up for trips and accept I won't have much time outside of work on a daily basis. I find myself struggling to work around others' socializing.
Full time work does not enable any form of work life balance. Working 9-6pm prevents you from being able to do anything you need to do outside of work during business hours and a lot of businesses aren't open on weekends. Furthermore, most people work 11 hour days from the moment they leave home for work to the moment they get home from work. You come home exhausted and sometimes don't have the energy to make yourself a meal. Furthermore you also don't get the exercise or the sleep you need to maintain optimal health especially when you have to catch up on your own personal matters late in the evenings. Your relationships often suffer because you don't have enough time to invest in them because of the demands and pressures of work and long committed hours. On the weekend, you sleep in to recover from the short sleeps during the week, clean the house, do the laundry, take the dogs for a walk and maybe see friends on a Saturday night and then you get one day of rest on a Sunday and start the madness over again on the Monday. I'm earning an above average wage and want to set my hours back to 30 hours a week. Despite the fact that I get all of my work done in 4 days and I've been going to work much brighter, more motivated and happier, the employer wants me full time regardless of how often I get burnt out from this. Legitimately it is modern day slavery.
Curious to know about any entrepreneurs here that struggle with stress. I'm a big believer of self care and would love to know more about what causes your stress for my research. As an entrepreneur, what are the 2 main issues you are facing with stress? Regarding stress, what do you want more than anything else? Looking forward to hearing your answers, thanks in advance and very grateful for any help!
Only money is not success bro, working hours and hours to be successful and your family search for other persons that's not at all success. Give time to your family:parents, children, wife, friends
Balance is not accurate.... Harmony in a ones Family and Work Activities. No real balance involved if you understand variables not within ones control. Focusing on the few things that matter most to the individual is what makes the most difference. To each his own!!!

Rune L Besides, there's rich people who doesn't work at all because they've inherited their parents' fortune
Well he just used wrong word but i think he meant less successful
I saw this from a different perspective based on his explanation of where our time goes. I assumed he was walking about *productive* hours during the week, not total work hours.
Rich people hire other people to work for them, they manage others without doing actual work themselves.

Kismet that my issue now. I work between 55-66 hours a week. I'm addicted to the overtime. But my life at home is slacking because of it.

A person should set boundries and limitations to achieve work and personal life balance.
It is achievable to have a prosperous professional career and a satisfying personal life. Take control of your work. Be proactive with your time.

I am a Student, taking mining engineering in my college, what can i do to be more successful..?
Definitely no shortcuts. Just focus on what you're passionate about, then follow the money as a general rule.
means to me. ..being my self as I see my self in my imagination
Your ideas are outdated, probably with your skillset and education. Join the new age where working smart beats working long hours.
Oh no!
Whatever you say its everything in me
Is it Law of Attraction? Or something like this?.
I want all times for me to injoin :)))
Who else is watching this at work?
Have enough physical exercise, meditation or me time everyday for 30 to 45 min.
Only money is not success bro, working hours and hours to be successful and your family search for other persons that's not at all success.
Give time to your family:parents, children, wife, friends
