What's Going On?

PURPOSE: Take some uninterrupted time to think about all aspects of your personal and work life to identify the areas that may be significantly impacting your work-life balance.

Time: 30 Minutes

STEP 1: Using the What’s Going On? Worksheet, identify the situations, issues, or personal accountabilities that may be impacting your work-life balance.

STEP 2: For each area, rate the level of impact each area is having on your work-life balance.

Rating Scale

LOW = This area currently does not impact my work-life balance…nothing needs to change

MEDIUM = This area is impacting my work-life balance, however it is manageable right now

HIGH = This area is currently having a significant impact on my work-life balance…something has to change.

STEP 3: You may want to think about the following:

  • Are there people in your personal and professional network who can help?
  • Do you need to speak with your manager or significant other regarding these issues and together identify actions that you both can take in order to alleviate the situation?
  • Are there commitments you need to reduce, put off, or break?

What will happen if you don’t take action to manage your work-life balance?
