SIX TIPS FOR THE WORKAHOLICS

SLOW DOWN. Make a conscious effort to eat, talk, walk and drive more slowly. Give yourself
extra time to get to appointments so you are not always rushing.

DRAW THE LINE. When you are already overloaded and need more personal time, do not take
on any other projects. You will be just causing yourself more stress.

LEARN TO DELEGATE. Let others share the load you do not have to do everything yourself. You
will have more energy and the end result will be good for everyone.

TAKE BREAKS. Take frequent work breaks: short walks or meditating for a few minutes can
help you unwind and clear your head

CARE FOR YOURSELF. Eat properly, get enough sleep and exercise regularly. Do what you can
so that you are healthy, both mentally and physically.

CUT YOUR HOURS. Be organized, but do not let your schedule run your life. Also, try to limit
yourself to working eight hours a day - and not a minute more.
