Stop being a workaholic and get your life back

If you are a workaholic then quite simply you are addicted to work. Work addiction leads to long term stress which is a major factor in ill health. Of course it's great to work hard but are you working at the expense of your life? Focusing on goals, being driven and success orientated gets you places. But being a workaholic - being driven to work at the expense of your life can drive you to an early grave. Workaholics often find that when they get where they were aiming for, there is nothing there.

Workaholics neglect family, friends, other interests, sleep, exercise and time to be creative (which can help their work life) because of the obsessive need to work. If you recognize yourself in this, read on.

Workaholics and perfectionism

Having high standards is all well and good, but if you constantly require perfection from yourself or others then you tend to become a tyrannical bully, even if you end up just bullying yourself. This, of course leads to stress and ill health usually follows.

Workaholics and balance

Being a workaholic can mean you achieve great things, but more people achieve great things without being addicted to work. Workaholism, as with all addictions, has diminishing returns. This means that the more you do of whatever you are addicted to, the more you have to do to feel the same buzz or just to feel 'normal.'

You need time away from work and when I say 'away from' I mean psychologically distanced from it as well as physically. If you are still obsessing about work when you should be focused on your loved ones or an outside of work activity then you are still basically working.

What you need in life

We all have shared basic needs in life. We all need to feel safe, secure, connected to people around us. We all need to receive and give attention, be stretched and stimulated, intimate with others, a sense of status, fed, rested and watered. These needs once met make us feel healthy or 'normal.' If we use work to unconsciously try to meet these needs then we may meet some at the expense of others. And your needs as a human being have to be met in balance.

Meeting some of your needs away from work enables you to have the spare capacity to be more affective when you are actually at work. So making sure you have a rich and varied social life outside of work, feeling intimately connected to at least one other person (be it relative, partner or best buddy), feeling secure and relaxed, sleeping and eating well will make you feel human and able to put your life into perspective. You are not a machine but even if you were every machine needs downtime sometime.

This Workaholic session will keep you focused on your long term goals even more effectively because it will encourage you to take care of all parts of your life for balance and harmony.
