Work–life balance

  Nowadays, it is very important to define your time for work and for your privat life. It is called "Work-Life Balance. Sociologists say that Work–life balance is the proper prioritizing between "work" (career and ambition) on one hand and "life" (pleasure, leisure, family and spiritual development) on the other.

   To be a perfect teacter you should spend hours working  365 days a year. And may be, it will be not anough for you. Young teachers find it difficult to have a balance in their lives becauseof  their hard work. Hometasks, projects, tests...Everything must be correct!

  Steven L. Sauter, chief of the Applied Psychology and Ergonomics Branch of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health in Cincinnati, Ohio, states that recent studies show that "the workplace has become the single greatest source of stress".Michael Feuerstein, professor of clinical psychology at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences at Bethesda Naval Hospital states, "We're seeing a greater increase in work-related neuroskeletal disorders from a combination of stress and ergonomic stressors". So we should keep our health and live right now.

  Personally, I think, that we must decide what is really important for everyone. Everyone wants to be successful in career, but also we should realize that work isn't everything.

  Try to find just 1-2 hours a day for you, your family, your interests and you'll see, ou will be happier! You'll see that the world aroud you is so bright and consist of not only work, but also of time just for your privat life.

                      It is very difficult to find a work-life balance but it is possible!
