In today´s episode of the 'Professional Success Podcast', your host Sheila Boysen-Rotelli, a Master Certified Career Coach, Recruiter, and Talent Development Leader talks about whether a 40-hour workweek is still required if you want to earn a full-time salary. She gives her views on the other options than a 40-hour workweek.
3 Key Points:
- There are three questions to answer. First, which 40 hours? Secondly, how do you spend those 40 hours, and then what is the impact you're feeling or the lack of impact you're feeling from your 40 hours?
- It is not so much a matter of how hard we're working, but rather how much we have exerted all of our energy. One thing that we can do here is to examine specific tasks or activities or things that are just soul-sucking for you.
- If you're feeling a little bit exhausted by your work there are several ways you can infuse little bits of meaning or purpose into your days that just might recharge you and this includes monetizing your hobbies like starting a blog, offering guitar lessons, photography, or teaching finance, etc.
