There's more to life than work

I sometimes find myself getting too stressed about work. The corporate world can be harsh and doesn't truly empathise with our personal life. Managers keep pushing us to achieve goals and to progress in our careers, but the way that they do it leaves us feeling like if we don't present objectives we run the risk to become obsoletes. 


What is wrong with us just being good on what we're doing? Maybe we're just not prepared to move on at a given moment, maybe our true career objectives don't match the opportunities we're offered, maybe we'll be better off drawing our own path?


CIPS Head office

I'm happy with the job I've got at the moment and to stay where I am right now, when I've got personal matters to resolve that require my focus and because of that I'n not in a position to be facing new challenges. Is that so wrong? My multitasking skills are limited to a certain area, if tasks differ too much I will burn out, and I really can't afford to. The job I've got provides me with financial stability, doing a good job (in a near autopilot mode), offers good perks (a good team spirit, a good location, hybrid work) whilst allowing me to place my focus in other areas of interest. One of the work-balance premises is certainly self-preservation, wouldn't you say
