For many years, people lived with the mistaken belief that their home life and their work could be totally separate.
Many people gave their families and personal lives a back seat to their careers, chasing only the carrot of success while other facets of their lives suffered.
In the 1960’s the pendulum began to swing in the other direction. Young people in our country started questioning the traditional values of the “establishment.” They denounced the work ethic and advocated recognizing people as individuals with needs that extended beyond work alone. They had a good point but perhaps they pushed the pendulum too far. It is undeniable that a person’s needs and identity encompass more than what he or she does for a living.
To begin your career effectively, you need to work at bringing your life into balance.

Working from home has presented enormous challenges. I get distracted easily. The time-management course helped me set triggers I could identify when I was getting off track. I am 100 percent more productive now and have spare time for my own interests!
The goal setting course helped me understand how to set short- and long-term goals as well as tricks and strategies to keep me on track! I have already received positive reviews and a promotion.
I work with a mixed group of intellectuals, programmers, and business types. Even though we all speak English, at times it’s like we are all from a different planet! The Listening course helped me improve my listening skills and I’m sharing the techniques with my colleagues!
