You walk to your car after work. The wind picks up, and chills shiver down your spine. Later that night, you wake up in a cold sweat, terrors still lingering in your mind. Whether you’re driving, in a meeting, eating dinner, or playing with your kids, the feeling never leaves you.
Something is there (spoiler alert: it’s your job). The worst part? You’re the only one who sees it!
If work feels like a horror movie, it’s time to rewrite the script. Don’t let the day’s troubles follow you home. Instead, set boundaries. Block off a specific time to get things done. When you set boundaries and create a schedule, you’re less likely to feel work haunting you at night.
Horror stories like these often mean your work-life balance is thrown off. If you’re the victim of a haunting, put some more LIFE into your work-life balance! Learn how with these wise words from Kirk.
