Eat, sleep, work, repeat. Ever feel like you live to work, rather than work to live?
I used to do anything my employer asked of me, working late into the night to complete extra projects well outside of my job description. After all, this was what I believed led to financial success. I thought if I do this for long enough, and save up enough money, one day I'll be rich and free to live as I please.
But after years of static titles and stagnant pay, the birth of my son brought everything into focus. I was spending some of my most valuable time working to build someone else's dream. I was trading all the experience and memories of my growing family for a little overtime pay at a below-average rate -- why?
In this self-help career manual, I share what took me from burnout to becoming my boss's boss's boss, including:
• How prioritizing your personal life over work can upgrade your career
• My discoveries about the devastating effects of long-term stress on the brain (and how to use this same mechanism to your advantage)
• The power of setting internal boundaries
• The art of saying "no" without guilt (and why it helps everyone in the long-term)
If you have ever felt the weight of overstretched commitments, sacrificing precious time with loved ones or neglecting your own well-being in the relentless pursuit of success, you are not alone. It's time to challenge the status quo, redefine your relationship with work and success, and quiet quit in order to fully live.
