Your third point is really important. Work is important for us and for the overall society. However, working 5 days a week during 40 years or more is too much. 2 centuries ago, life span was much lower, so the comparison to old times is not relevant. I'll definitely say that youngsters want a better work/personal balance and more free time to enjoy life (and participate to the economy through consumption, as stores, cinemas and restaurants usually make most of their sales during the week end). That's why the best answer, in my humble opinion, is to propose to all workers the possibility to switch toward a 4 days week work, as some European countries are currently experimenting. This should concern blue collar jobs as well as white collar jobs, even in prestigious industries such as consulting and finance. This 4 days a week schedule can take different forms, and result in a reduction of the monthly salary, or not. Personally, I would easily accept a stimulating and challenging job with a 4 days per week schedule, even if I have a 20% lower compensation. It is worth it, and I'll be highly motivated in the long run.

I've been working with my dad for 3 years. My dad is literally my boss. We always talked about work AFTER work. I was getting stressed out without noticing. At some point, i started smoking and staying outside of home during weekend. We started having a really bad relationship due to disagreements. I decided to move out from my parents home and things sorted out. I was able to run away from 24 hours working enviroment and now im good and we are good. Im happy that i have my own time and space even though im spending a lot of money for renting.

Creating boundaries is not just for our personal relationships. Thanks for reminding us to do so professionally as well. Because our ability to earn and materially care for ourselves and our families is tied to our work, it can seem harder to set professional boundaries. However, if we want to enjoy the fruits of our labor, it is necessary. Peace to all.

Power is an illusion and disrupts natural law. Rather than seeking "power" or "dominance' over anything, including your own mind, instead, realize the truth; all things are connected and equal. Don't follow advice of Roman emperors. They cannot help you seek truth and understanding as they are failures. They failed because they sought power and dominance and went against natural law just like the Roman Catholic Church and just like the inevitable outcome of countries founded on the doctrine of so called discovery.

And the usefulness of these recommendations depends not only on your occupation but, even more, on the social-politic environment, in which you live.

I have been burned out since starting WFH. Colleagues have set call meeting or contacted on my weekends, the managers have given the deadlines to work throughout the weekends. My private life has been interrupted by work. This video encourages me to be stronger to take back my time. Thanks much.

Your workplace needs to know that their employees deserve a break and need time away from work by not replying to them right away or during the weekend. This will help refresh perspectives and solutions when employees come back to work. The mind and soul of everyone need to relax and recharge while away from work. Even teachers have problems doing this as they feel they need to be there for their students and staff. If any workplace demands immediate replies, then it might be time to find an employer that respects your time and life.

I work in a job that is demanding seasonally. Recently we implemented a 4-day work week for our off-season to balance this out and it has made a world of difference for my motivation and level off burn-out. I also never have notifications on for work emails.

These are all great tips if you already work in a place that's pretty reasonable and values you highly as a worker. Many people would be labelled as "slow" or "lazy" or be told they need to "say yes more" if they did this. Great if you can do this without threatening your job though, but I wouldn't say typical.

1. Reframe rest 2. Set boundaries 3. Set team goals 4. Negotiate

Thank you for this. Some helpful tools to use. When you're passionate about your work you find it more hard to switch off. But now I realize the importance of resting and valuing time to reduce stress and a more balanced lifestyle.

Even though I work from home, something I often do is force myself to stop working to take a "water cooler break". Or I'll just drop to the floor and start doing pushups

Oh my Lord!!!! I am really grateful to this Ma'am for the video about optimizing the working process. While I was watching this video, I found the answer to why Russians are so sad and aggressive. It is very simple - merely they don't know what means to relax in their day-offs and vacations - their minds are always stuck in the issues of regulating their everyday activities, handling everything just in time (with yellings, swearing, and nervosity). In brief, the ability to relax and distract yourself in your spare time - is one of the real guarantees of your success. And hello to Adam Grant with his "languishing" and his tips about changing mindset))))

They add up to people quitting their jobs

That's great, Sometimes we need to get our minds off negativity and just motivate ourselves, If you dwell on your failures you will end up not achieving your dreams, take a chance and try something new.

Just because someone else has no self-worth and doesn’t care about working off the clock doesn’t mean employers ought to be enabled in that. Eventually word will spread about that abusive workplace and no one will work there so then the business will collapse. The job itself and customer satisfaction doesn’t happen without happy employees. See Wal-Mart as a prime example.

Wonderful information on how we can be more productive in work and manage your time also how to deal with your time in order to be happy and rest if you take time off.I loved how she said not only reframe rest also reclaim it👍🏻

Marvelous work! The video is brilliant and provides all the necessary information. I like this site. Thanks for sharing this useful post. Thanks for the effective information.

So this is the voice i have listened everyday in Ted-ed ?!

I love this talk. Thanks.

This so simple, but brilliant. I'm implementing boundaries, blocking my calendar and increasing healthier habits. BTW, read the study on taking your phone to the bathroom. Yeah, you are shortening your life with that habit, worried about being prompt to emails and texts. BS! and you maybe causing digestive issues. OK, off to set boundaries. Thank you for this talk!

"Won't check email between 6 and 8 pm". How about I won't check email between 5 pm and 8 am?

I needed this.

In short have time for yourself. Just you alone. Rest. Meditate, and have gratitude. Self care is needed anyway.

Great video! Creating, communicating, and upholding boundaries are SO important to not only this, but other areas of our lives as well.

Thankyou soo much

I don't mind being distracted, as a matter of fact if i don't want to be distracted at the moment, I just ignore or text "call you back, busy". I love my own power to do or not do. Sometimes i have to answer the call. But when i don't have to, believe me you I won't!!😁

Amazing talk

Once I clock out I NEVER answer any emails period...don't even have work email on my phone...yes I've worked some weekends to meet a deadline but that's the exception not the rule...maybe it's just me but this is non negotiable unless the company gonna pay me extra for my off hours service.

Wonderful! TED always surprise us with quality content!!

The opportunity of a lifetime must be seized in the lifetime of the opportunity! There is no time like the present to become the business owner you've always wanted to be, get clarity around your life purpose. Make major leap in your business.

I had a boss that expected me to answer instantly to text messages at ALL hours. If I didn't respond instantaneously they'd proceed to spam text and call me multiple times. One day I had awful cramps on a day off and was taking a nap for two hours. I woke up to ten texts and multiple calls. Needless to say I put my two weeks in the next day. I can't think of anything that is that urgent in a non-emergency that can't be left until work hours. I think in the hiring process we need to be interviewing the supervisor as well. Find out if they implement any of these rules in their own lives. If not, the job is not worth it imo.

I wholeheartedly agree with the importance of maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Work-life balance is of paramount importance in today's fast-paced world. Employers must recognize that it directly impacts their employees' well-being and overall job satisfaction. Striking a balance between work and personal life is crucial for mental and physical health, productivity, and job retention. Employers should actively support their workforce in achieving this equilibrium by implementing flexible schedules, promoting remote work options, and encouraging time-off policies. When employees can maintain a healthy work-life balance, they are more motivated, engaged, and better equipped to contribute to their organizations' success.

Thanks a lot

I have seen better days. Sometimes life is hard to take and it gets harder to take it all alone. But I am not alone! I have dreams to chase and melodies to surpass the dark days. I have limitless space to unfold my true potential. I'm the one who needs no one to fire up. 'Cause I'm strong and I have a mind which is positively wired up.

Thought this was pretty obvious, but I also knew the obvious isn't always so when you get too integrated in work. Which, lots of people do.

Yes, time is funny, when you are having fun it flies by, waiting for a bus for 5 minutes seems to take forever, as does the last 5 minutes at the end of a work day when you want to go home.

Interesting talk. However, planning your weekends and time off seems too strict for free time and relaxation. How about taking a different approach by changing our mindset? I think if we would view our time off from a different perspective, i.e. deserved relaxation time, quality time for oneself or quality time with friends and family, then we'd go about more relaxed and/or happily with our relaxation time than if we plan it (and worse would be if we don't follow the plans we set for our relaxation time and feel bad due to a job not accomplished!), you know what I mean?

Thankyou❤

When I watched this movie, it was my teacher who said:" We have a class that says 3 rules for better work-life balance" for our next class. So I got this. For me, I think it seems too hard to make it true because if your country's work culture is 996, it is one style of 9:00 am we go to the office, and 21:00 we go home, the worst is people have to work 6 days a week. Totaly 72 hours a week for these people you know. Someone adapts to the situation, the people got the gain thing. People never know they have no money, and they just have time, what a bad life for him. How do you think so?

One thing that I hate to say to family members and friends is that I am always swamped under with work. Everyone should spend time with families and friends rather than indulge in work 24 hours.

I’ve never heard ‘feel free to slack me’ before. I can guess the meaning but is that a new slang from the US?
