Refocusing and Rebuilding for Your Work Life Balance
Introduction
The pandemic. Climate change. Family. Superiors, co-workers, and subordinates.
These are all what some, others, or all of us hold in common.
The Covid-19 pandemic ended. But life goes on and we need to be proactive if another one happens.
The influence of the internet makes everyone aware of disruptive events and produces a consciousness that we are all in this together. We are one in seeking better work-life balance.
There is a need to refocus on what matters in work and life: to rebuild trust in work relationships, to practice health care, and to refocus one's mindset towards a positive and productive direction. This work-life balance direction produces simple, practical solutions that are easy to implement and promote self-sufficiency in managing one's work and personal life.

Mayroon tayong kasabihan sa Tagalog, “Nasa Diyos ang awa; nasa tao ang gawa.”
There is always time for a new beginning; to face each day as the sun shines again.
Decide, take action, rise, and move on towards a better future.
How to refocus, rebuild and enjoy one's work again
Simply by resetting goals, or making new ones, you can relive your dream.
Health and financial wellness are essential priorities.
Setting goals for health and financial well-being can be worked out to integrate both present needs and wants. Refocusing and rebuilding on the time-tested and tried-and-true values of conservatism and practicality, with emphasis on needs than wants, have helped families and businesses thrive in the past.
Add a new skill set. Be rare and valuable
Adding to your skill set is necessary.
As author Cal Newport says, being “rare and valuable” is a big advantage. Watch and listen to a YouTube video by Productivity Game with the title, "Be Rare and Valuable: So Good They Can't Ignore You."
There is a trend now for obtaining microcredentials. You can search for one that integrates knowledge of Artificial Intelligence. AI is where the action is.
Adding a new skill set or learning how to use AI are essential for self-sufficiency. To refocus and rebuild is to use practical tools such as AI for personal and professional growth.
- AI can provide simple steps to balance work and life.
- It can produce practical solutions for a sustainable work rhythm and
- help those with part-time jobs or MSMEs to prioritize well-being without sacrificing productivity.
Also, for those who need to seek additional streams of income, a formal course on AI can be good for your resumé, curriculum vitae or LinkedIn profile. Simply adding any short certificate course such as the CS50 Computer Science of Harvard (free for a limited time period) is a win. And for MSMEs, the Department of Trade and Industry also gives webinars for Filipino MSMEs to gain skills for business.
Learning how to employ AI is a winning skill
Learning how to "prompt" artificial intelligence for better results is a winning skill.
Now is the time to join the bandwagon of AI.
Microsoft's Copilot (Bing AI) and Google's Gemini have basic and free versions to get you started.
The Philippines is one of the countries in the world that has opened itself to these modern technologies. A new Philippines and a new world are being born through AI.
Google is at the forefront in promoting AI and its responsible use - for the greater good of all.
Producing good work-life balance and enjoying work and life again
One key to good work-life balance is to have a growth mindset.
When some days don't work out right, a growth mindset will help you see what you learned. Apply it to be successful.
A growth mindset can
- help one learn from mistakes and failures,
- add a valuable skill necessary to your work,
- upgrade to the right devices,
- and apply common sense decisions for both work and life.
With all these, you are good to go.
