Check out 16 Return-To-Work Programs In India For Ambitious Women Like You!
These simple work life balance tips look at how we can maintain our sanity in the struggle between demands at work and home.
Some people say that it’s easy for them to maintain a balance between their work and their personal lives. However, in a new age of intense work conditions, many people find it difficult to cope with their job requirements as well as personal lives.
This could become strenuous if not properly handled and adequately balanced. Today various jobs, whether in Indian companies or multi-national companies (MNCs) demand the employee’s 24*7 availability at work with of course, new technologies and software too emerging on the scene.
Many of us want to reach the top and to excel at our careers, but in this quest, a person’s personal life is likely to be affected, leading to their losing out on mental and physical well-being.
People think that working 24*7, in order to gain recognition and to be made a benchmark for success, is not a big problem or issue, but it has its own impact when one is not able to connect with loved ones; in fact, we don’t have time for themselves too.
The most important thing we need is to develop the mental and emotional capacity and the right attitude to deal with challenges in one’s professional as well as personal life.
There are ways to achieve and maintain healthy personal relationships along with outstanding career growth. Here are some work life balance tips that I feel will be useful:
These become important especially for ambitious women with the capability of thinking and dreaming high. There is no denying that women have more hurdles such as taking care of children or elderly people in the family. However, having a supportive family by one’s side can definitely help overcome these hurdles. It is important for us to value our work just as we value each and every precious family member. I believe that a working mother is a good example for the kids, since they gain in confidence and independence by seeing their mother handling various tasks at different times. As women we shouldn’t underestimate ourselves – we are often capable of doing more than we think.
It is true that it sometimes becomes really difficult to be equally present in our professional and personal lives. We try our best, that our work or our family doesn’t miss out on us. But as the saying goes, ‘Where there’s a will, there’s a way’. I believe that there’s always some or other way, but we have to keep our senses working to see the coming opportunity. So let’s give the best of who we are, and enjoy and live up to every moment!

UP Boards Topper Prachi Nigam was trolled on social media for her facial hair; our obsession with appearance is harsh on young minds.
Prachi Nigam’s photo has been doing the rounds on social media for the right reasons. Well, scratch that- I wish the above statement were true. This 15-year-old girl should ideally be revelling in her spectacular achievement of scoring a whopping 98.05% and topping her tenth-grade boards. But oddly enough, along with her marks, it’s something else that garners more attention – her facial hair.
While the trolls are driving themselves giddy by mocking this girl who hasn’t even completed her school yet, the ones who are taking her side are going one step ahead – they are sharing her photoshopped pictures, sans the facial hair, looking nothing less than a celebrity with captions saying – “Prachi Nigam, ten years later”.
Doctors have already diagnosed her with PCOD in their comments, based on photographic evidence. While we have names for people shamed for their weight – body shaming, for their skin colour- racism, for their age- age shaming, for being a female- sexism, this category of shaming where one faces criticism for their appearance has no name. With that, it also has zero shame attached to it.
