ARE YOU A WORKAHOLIC?

YOU ARE A WORKAHOLIC IF:

1.  You get up early no matter how late you go to bed.

2.  You are eating lunch alone, and you read or work while you eat.

3.  You make daily lists of things to do.

4.  You find it difficult to "do nothings".

5.  You are energetic and competitive.

6.  You work anytime and anywhere.

7.  You find vacations :hard to take".

8.  You dread retirement.

9.  You really enjoy your work.


To combat "workaholism" try these tips.  It's effective.

a.  Focus on the work you most love doing, and try to find ways to stop doing, delegate, or minimize the parts of your work you dislike.

b.  Use your time; don't let it use you.  Decide how much time you want to spend working; then limit your work accordingly.

I stop working at 5:30 pm and do online farming.

c.  Build friendship at work.  Arrange to spend quality time with coworkers.
bonding with my office mates.

d.  Organize and decorate your workplace to create an environment that pleases you.  You deserve it.

e.  Try to stay in touch with the positive aspects of your work:  the pleasure of doing work that fulfills you, the freedom, the opportunity to be of service to others, or other aspects of your work you find rewarding.

I've overcome being a workaholic. Thanks to my 7month old job, being workaholic is not a requirement.

Happy New Week Red!
