Do you sometimes feel overwhelmed by work??

Perhaps you are in a certain private sector where your boss wants to completely drain you out, before believing that you are actually doing a good job for him.


And in that instance you don't have the time and opportunity to pursue your goals and dreams or build a side hustle for yourself.

For this reason, it is important that you know how to balance your personal life and work life.

And here are 3 smart tips that will help you do just that


💡1. Practice time management:

Time is a very scarce commodity. It is the one thing we don't have as we want it, you only get 24hours per day

Nothing more, nothing less, so knowing how to manage it can help you have a healthy balance between your work and life.


And to do that you can work on starting your day with a clear plan. You need to have a schedule of where personal life meet with your work.

For Eg. You can schedule a time for chatting daily and once it past that time, you switch off your phone and work on your goals.

And you need to make it known to your people that once it's 10pm that you won't be able to take any calls or chats, and they can only reach through a text message if it's an emergency.

This will help you use that time to focus on your work and side hustle without distraction.


💡2. Create boundaries: In order for you to be able to succeed at one without failing at the other, you need to create boundaries and stick to it.

For instance, you may have to always remind yourself to finish up your work in the office rather than take it home.

Doing this will help you give all your attention to your personal life, side hustle, friends and family. It will also help you to truly unwind from stress.

However, you need to give your job the full concentration it deserves at work rather than let your attention wander unnecessarily.


When you are work, completely focus on it and don't let anything else distract you, allocate a time to your work life and focus on it

It will help clear you mind.


💡3. Remove any energy draining activity:

There are certain activities that drain you of your efforts (mental and physical) and also waste your time.

It may be the unnecessary banter with colleagues or time spent on the social media. Whatever they may be, you need to identify these time and energy wasters and do away with them.


When you do this, you will free up more time to concentrate on your job which can help you finish the day’s task on time.

This is will in turn free up more time for you to enjoy your personal life and build up a side hustle for yourself.
