How to navigate the delicate balance between your work commitments and personal priorities
The President of the Ghana Chapter of the International Coaching Federation, Scofray Nana Yaw Yeboah has shed light on how workers can navigate the delicate balance between work commitments and personal priorities to achieve a healthy work-life balance.
Although he acknowledged that, striking a harmonious equilibrium between professional responsibilities and personal life, can be elusive in the fast-paced world achieving a healthy work-life balance is crucial for overall fulfilment.
He explained that navigating the slippery path to work-life balance, especially when many aspects of life often intersect with work, saying, “whatever happens to you personally automatically influences your profession because it is you the individual that manifests in your profession.”
He warned that failure to achieve work-life could lead to loneliness and isolation, as well as dispiritedness.
HE warned that when the person gets into what he describes as “overdrive”, it becomes necessary to seek therapy.
He admitted that it is difficult to draw a boundary between life and work, but it is crucial that one becomes aware of the blurring of the lines.
