Channel Your Energies To Increase Productivity At Work To Enjoy Life After Office Hours
Even on vacation, we are told to be contactable 24/7. Though our bosses may not call us, the thought of having someone call you while you are on holiday really puts off the enjoyment of having your time off.
At work, meetings frequently stretch till 5 to 6pm, sometimes even till midnight. I have heard horror stories of how executives miss their meals because of a meeting that went overtime. It is not only bad for the gastronomical aspect of health, but also taxing on the mind and spirit.
Work is meant to occupy one's time and to allow one to earn income to support his or her activities. Of course, there are other intangible aspects of work, such as the passion for a particular field, the need to socialise and to feel gratification with some success at work.
It should be realised that workers are not machines. Only with proper relaxation and rest can an engine run at optimum capacity. I truly believe that workers should be rewarded for their efficiency and hard work by being allowed to go home on time, take time off flexibly and not being disturbed while on holiday.
Work is meant to enhance one's life and not meant to prevent anyone from enjoying his or her personal life. It saddens me when I hear of anyone being deprived of a personal life because of work. Employees should channel their energies to increase their productivity at work so that they can have more time for their own personal lives after office hours.
