Personal Growth: Organizing from the Inside-Out

As we talked about in our last post, lowering stress can be a stressful task in itself!  Author Carlow Cruz makes these suggestions for creating new habits to regain balance in your life:

 

FAMILY TIME

Spending time with your family brings great balance to a busy work-life.  By spending at least one quality meal together a day will help everyone in your family feel engaged and at peace.

 

GIVE FIFTEEN

Excelling at one thing helps create a successful life.  To be better at that one thing, give it fifteen minutes a day.  If you enjoy it, participating in this activity, hobby or task will bring balance to an unsatisfying day and allow you to strive to become better each day.

 

PAY IT FORWARD

Many times, we are given opportunities to find success and personal growth.  These are the personal achievements that bring us balance.  Others may not have the same opportunities or support.  Finding a role to play in someone else’s life will always help us regain balance.

 

PLAN ON PAPER

If you have been inspired by achieving balance today, don’t let this moment slip away – write down your own ideas on lowering stress and finding personal growth.  Write it down and make a plan!
