Hi, this is Bill Kasko , President and CEO of Frontline Source Group, Inc. a temporary staffing and direct hire employment placement agency based in Dallas Fort Worth. Have you ever wondered how you can achieve the best of both worlds? I am sure this question has made its way into your mind at one time or another, especially when thinking about your work/life balance. Don’t you wish you could establish a better equilibrium between your professional and personal responsibilities? Here are some tips provided by Career Builder that might help:

Negotiate a change.
In some cases you can negotiate a compressed workweek, a part-time position, or job-sharing or telecommuting opportunities. In your discussion with your boss, give specific examples of how modifying your current work situation will increase your efficiency and productivity.

Explore alternate options.
Some careers are simply more demanding than others. If you need additional time for yourself or your family, consider pursuing one that is less stressful and more flexible.

Slow down.
Stop and enjoy the activities and people around you, both inside and outside the office. Whenever possible, schedule time between meetings and leave your evenings free so you can refuel throughout and at the end of each day. Resist the urge to bring too many projects home over the weekends.

Simplify.
It's human nature to try to accomplish too much in too little time. Identify ways to simplify your life. Or perhaps you are juggling too many social commitments outside of work. Try to focus on those that are most meaningful to you.

Chart goals.
Take charge and develop a prioritized list of tasks that must be accomplished each day. You'll not only enjoy the satisfaction of crossing off tasks as they are completed but also avoid feeling overwhelmed.

Share responsibilities.
No matter how efficient you are, there is only so much you can accomplish in one day. If you're a manager, make sure that you are delegating appropriately instead of trying to do everything yourself.

View balance as a moving target.
Remember that achieving the proper work/life balance is an ongoing process that depends on your current goals and responsibilities. For example, if you've received a promotion at work, consider skipping previously scheduled social functions to adjust to your new role.

It's possible to achieve your professional goals without sacrificing your personal life.
