It's important to unwind from the work.

 Assume, you’ve got an important project due at work, you are required to put in few extra hours in the evenings- answering emails and chalking out ‘what’ and ‘how’ of the project.


You have spent the whole weekend behind that project work. You don’t remember the last time when you sat on dining table without a phone or laptop. You had all eyes of your family members drilling you while you are busy with your laptop.


Your department is short-staffed; you have decide to take a lead, sacrificing your much-needed day off and pulling up till late night to help out your team and the project.


You’re exhausted, stress has built-up, you need a good sleep to regain your stamina.


But you’re being a team leader! It’s meant to be like this, that’s what you think and others too.


Four out of ten of us struggle to unwind from the work in the evenings and/or at weekends. This is an obvious sign that our work-life balance is out of sync.


Nearly half of working parents claim that work restricts their ability to spend their time reading books or playing with their kids.


Almost 40% of my professional friends feeling overwhelmed by demands of the modern workplace, affecting their relationship with their partner. Because boundaries between work and home have become blurred thanks to technology.
