7 life hacks to achieve Zen (dvm360)
By Kathryn Primm DVM
Most of us are probably looking for some balance in our lives. If 7 changes in your life are too many to get your head around, why not focus on one or two and build from there?
1. Separate yourself
Make an effort to keep the "work" you apart from the "other" you by setting some firm boundaries.
2. It's OK to say no
It's just not possible to achieve it all & we all have different amounts of things we can manage so don't compare yourself to others.
3. Organise and plan ahead
During work time be as effective as you can possible be by being organised and planning. Make the most of spare 5 minutes here and there and you'll be surprised at what you can achieve.
4. Let technology work for you, not against you
Save the personal social media and gaming for your "other time" and make the most of apps and technology to help you plan your work time.
5. Financial success can take time
It's rare for success to come overnight - especially in the veterinary industry! But that doesn't mean you're not on the path to success.
6. Have some fun
There's lots of things you can do that doesn't cost much money - look online and see what's on offer locally.
7. Eat right and exercise
It might sound boring and just all-too-hard but regular exercise helps improve sleep quality and brain chemistry.
