#20 How To Get Work-Life Balance

We live and work in a hyper-connected, fast-paced society - and the truth is that there will always be some form of distraction, urgency, or emergency to respond to. There will always be people, problems, and feeds that will demand your attention and drain your energy.

The way to gain work-life balance is to learn a specific set of skills that will allow you to take control of how and where your time is spent, together with mastery over the skills of influence and positive persuasion, so that you can enlist and empower the right people to help you get the important work done. No more burning the midnight oil, and no more feeling overwhelmed about your workload, and guilty about not being present with the people you care about.

By the end of this episode, you will learn these two key skills to cultivate work-life balance so that you can create the personal and professional success that you want.
