Sometimes work problems, household chores and obligations to family members deprive a person of the opportunity to pursue his personal life. On the one hand, it is wrong to neglect such important things as self-development or relationships with a loved one, on the other hand, it is also impossible to completely abandon the solution of pressing issues.
Instructions
Step 1
Analyze your to-do list. You need to determine if everything from the list you have drawn up really needs to be done. Cross out the items that you do not need to do. Next, see if there are any other people's duties and affairs among the tasks that do not directly concern you. You shouldn't work for other people, especially when you are sorely lacking time for yourself. Learn to prioritize correctly and put the most important things at the top of the list, alternating life spheres such as work, family, friends, hobbies, health, love.
Step 2
Stop wasting time on nonsense. If you have a habit of mindlessly surfing the internet or watching various talk shows, it's no wonder you're running out of time. Refuse idle talk, aimless pastime and activities that bring you neither pleasure nor benefit. Allocate your resources wisely. Be a more focused and organized person.
Step 3
Realize how important it is to make time in your private life. You can not postpone until later the solution of issues that concern you directly. Don't miss the opportunity to educate yourself and develop your talents. Hobbies are just as important to your self-realization as your main professional activity. Understand that you need to build relationships with members of the opposite sex, otherwise the moment when you are able to start a family may be missed.
Step 4
Keep in mind that the work will not leave you anywhere. You can make a career at almost any age, but you need to take care of your own health from a young age. Do not neglect healthy habits, exercise, try to cook tasty, healthy meals. If your work activity takes up all of your time and you have no time to look after yourself, it may be worth considering changing jobs.
Step 5
Set aside time that you will not devote to work. Promise yourself that on evenings, weekends, holidays, and holidays, you will only do the things that you enjoy or benefit from, or maybe both. Feel free to turn off your work mobile phone while traveling or during family dinner. The important thing here is how you position yourself: either you are just a cog in a huge machine that makes money, or you are a person with your thoughts, feelings and desires, as well as the limit of moral strength that you are ready to give to work.
Step 6
Take your personal time with interesting things. Make sure you have more plans after work. If you are passionate about some personal projects, you will have no time to think about work. But if you have absolutely no ideas about what to do during your leisure time, it is possible that you will either waste these hours or get back to work.
