Marsh lays out an ideal day balanced between family time, personal time and productivity - and offers some stirring encouragement to make it happen. Work-life balance, says Nigel Marsh, is too important to be left in the hands of your employer. “…It was that I would ask one simple question, “Why are you doing the work that you’re doing?” And so often their answer would be, “Well, because somebody told me I’m supposed to.” And I realized that so many people around us are climbing their way up this ladder that someone tells them to climb, and it ends up being leaned up against the wrong wall, or no wall at all…”Ĥ) “How To Make Work-Life Balance Work” by Nigel Marsh He shares what he learned in this deceptively simple talk about finding out what matters to you - and then getting started doing it. Scott Dinsmore quit a job that made him miserable, and spent the next four years wondering how to find work that was joyful and meaningful. And it’s the complete opposite to everyone else….”ģ) “How To Find Work You Love” by Scott Dinsmore “…How do you explain when things don’t go as we assume? Or better, how do you explain when others are able to achieve things that seem to defy all of the assumptions? As it turns out, all the great inspiring leaders and organizations in the world, whether it’s Apple or Martin Luther King or the Wright brothers, they all think, act and communicate the exact same way. Simon Sinek has a simple but powerful model for inspirational leadership - starting with a golden circle and the most powerful question. What we believe, obviously - and you know this - determines our behavior, and our behavior determines what we become in life.”Ģ) “How Great Leaders Inspire Action” by Simon Sinek It determines, really, everything in your life. Your worldview, though, does determine everything else in your life, because it determines your decisions it determines your relationships it determines your level of confidence. And so, you need to understand what your worldview is. “.I think inside at some point, we put our heads down on the pillow and we go, “There’s got to be more to life than this.” I think it comes down to this issue of: “Why am I here? What am I here for? Where am I going?” These are not religious issues. Rick Warren, author of bestseller “The Purpose-Driven Life,” talk about importance of understanding your worldview and reflects on his own crisis of purpose in the wake of his book’s wild success.
