Now is a good time to take stock and evaluate some key factors. The first of these lies at the heart of your motivation:
Are you currently:
Living to work?
Or
Working to live?
Why?
Understanding this will clarify your focus and direct your energies better. If you currently live to work then you are more inclined to identify with your work and, therefore, be sensitive to when this is in line with or out of synch with your values at work.
If you work to live, putting your attention into what your work enables you to do outside of work will help you appreciate this more, as well as highlight any source of disaffection – i.e. the impact work is having on your wider aims or desires.
