第一篇:平衡生活與工作
新時代的女性如何平衡生活與工作的天平
近年來“獲得工作與生活的平衡”在白領(lǐng)中廣受熱議。所謂“工作和生活的平衡”主要是指職業(yè)人士如何處理工作和生活時間支配,或者說是關(guān)于優(yōu)先次序和價值觀念的問題。有學者提出了與IQ、EQ并行的TQ(時商)的觀點。
大家對卓別林30年代出的一部電影《摩登時代》一定不陌生,他扮演的工人,整天和冷酷無情的機器競賽,分秒必爭工作呆板重復(fù)、枯燥無味。電影里有血有肉的人和冰冷刻板的機器,形成了鮮明對比,給觀眾以強烈地視覺沖擊。這就是典型的泰勒思想科學的管理理論,今天看來這并不科學。
而隨著世界范圍內(nèi)經(jīng)濟競爭加劇,人們生活與工作的失衡現(xiàn)象越來越明顯。有調(diào)查表明:
作為受過高等教育的女性,由于家庭周期的特點,在職業(yè)生涯發(fā)展中形成“兩個高峰一個低谷”。第一個高峰是畢業(yè)后進入職場的最初幾年,在這一時期,女性或者未婚,或者已婚但無子女,可以在工作上投入較大精力。之后,隨著子女的出生,很自然地遇到職業(yè)發(fā)展中的“低谷”。一般在35歲左右后的十余年時間,隨著子女可以托人代管、逐漸自立,這時的女性又可以在工作上深入投入,獲得了“第二個高峰”的時間和精力條件。
而我們剛畢業(yè)的職場新人,可能有更多的時間用于個人休閑、自我完善、投入工作,但這并不表明目標的實現(xiàn)、成功的取得會自然發(fā)生。作為職場女性,如果只是一味沉浸在“一個人的瀟灑”中,任由歲月毫無計劃流逝,即便可以實現(xiàn)物質(zhì)豐富、生活輕松,但未免白白浪費了自身的獨特優(yōu)勢,同時,也將無法滿足“自我實現(xiàn)”的最終需求。因此,我們應(yīng)該及早地做好自身的生涯規(guī)劃,在認識自我的基礎(chǔ)上確立生涯目標,根據(jù)自身實際和需求,結(jié)合環(huán)境條件,確立好中長期目標,并找到實現(xiàn)的路徑。時間作為一種資源,若不妥善管理,就有被浪費的可能。若我們能把握好“第一高峰”與“第二高峰”自然連接的獨特優(yōu)勢,這段“黃金時間”將能產(chǎn)生巨大的效益。所以我們應(yīng)該根據(jù)設(shè)立的目標制定時間進度表,監(jiān)控并限制生活中的“時間竊賊”等方法,妥善平衡職場與生活,成為時間管理的高手。對于我們即將畢業(yè)的大學生,在未來的職場生涯中,我們應(yīng)該如何平衡我們的生活和工作呢?
首先,是認識自己,做個頭腦清醒的人。清楚地知道自己喜歡什么,追求什么;對自己來講,最重要的是什么。只有想清楚這點,才會在各種選擇中做出適合自己的選擇。只有清楚自己的追求,才不至于患得患失,耿耿于懷。其次,是規(guī)劃自己,做個善于籌劃的人,生活與工作,是人生天平的兩側(cè),需要平衡,生活才更和諧,人生才更精彩。
而作為新時代即將步入職場的女性,我們應(yīng)該在搞好自己工作的同時,培養(yǎng)自己的興趣愛好、建立自己的社交圈子,來豐富生活、陶冶情操,獲得精神上的高質(zhì)量生活,借以使生活和工作得以平衡。

TED演講:如何平衡生活與工作
What I thought I would do is I would start with a simple request.I'd like all of you to pause for a moment, you wretched weaklings, and take stock of your miserable existence.(Laughter)
Now that was the advice that St.Benedict gave his rather startled followers in the fifth century.It was the advice that I decided to follow myself when I turned 40.Up until that moment, I had been that classic corporate warrior--I was eating too much, I was drinking too much, I was working too hard and I was neglecting the family.And I decided that I would try and turn my life around.In particular, I decided I would try to address the thorny issue of work-life balance.So I stepped back from the workforce, and I spent a year at home with my wife and four young children.But all I learned about work-life balance from that year was that I found it quite easy to balance work and life when I didn't have any work.(Laughter)Not a very useful skill, especially when the money runs out.So I went back to work, and I've spent these seven years since struggling with, studying and writing about work-life balance.And I have four observations I'd like to share with you today.The first is: if society's to make any progress on this issue, we need an honest debate.But the trouble is so many people talk so much rubbish about work-life balance.All the discussions about flexi-time or dress-down Fridays or paternity leave only serve to mask the core issue, which is that certain job and career choices are fundamentally incompatible with being meaningfully engaged on a day-to-day basis with a young family.Now the first step in solving any problem is acknowledging the reality of the situation you're in.And the reality of the society that we're in is there are thousands and thousands of people out there leading lives of quiet, screaming desperation, where they work long, hard hours at jobs they hate to enable them to buy things they don't need to impress people they don't like.(Laughter)(Applause)It's my contention that going to work on Friday in jeans and [a] T-shirt isn't really getting to the nub of the issue.(Laughter)The second observation I'd like to make is we need to face the truth that governments and corporations aren't going to solve this issue for us.We should stop looking outside.It's up to us as individuals to take control and responsibility for the type of lives that we want to lead.If you don't design your life, someone else will design it for you, and you may just not like their idea of balance.It's particularly important--this isn't on the World Wide Web, is it? I'm about to get fired--it's particularly important that you never put the quality of your life in the hands of a commercial corporation.Now I'm not talking here just about the bad companies--the “abattoirs of the human soul,” as I call them.(Laughter)I'm talking about all companies.Because commercial companies are inherently designed to get as much out of you [as] they can get away with.It's in their nature;it's in their DNA;it's what they do--even the good, well-intentioned companies.On the one hand, putting childcare facilities in the workplace is wonderful and enlightened.On the other hand, it's a nightmare--it just means you spend more time at the bloody office.We have to be responsible for setting and enforcing the boundaries that we want in our life.The third observation is we have to be careful with the time frame that we choose upon which to judge our balance.Before I went back to work after my year at home, I sat down and I wrote out a detailed, step-by-step description of the ideal balanced day that I aspired to.And it went like this: wake up well rested after a good night's sleep.Have sex.Walk the dog.Have breakfast with my wife and children.Have sex again.(Laughter)Drive the kids to school on the way to the office.Do three hours' work.Play a sport with a friend at lunchtime.Do another three hours' work.Meet some mates in the pub for an early evening drink.Drive home for dinner with my wife and kids.Meditate for half an hour.Have sex.Walk the dog.Have sex again.Go to bed.(Applause)How often do you think I have that day?(Laughter)We need to be realistic.You can't do it all in one day.We need to elongate the time frame upon which we judge the balance in our life, but we need to elongate it without falling into the trap of the “I'll have a life when I retire, when my kids have left home, when my wife has divorced me, my health is failing, I've got no mates or interests left.”(Laughter)A day is too short;“after I retire” is too long.There's got to be a middle way.A fourth observation: We need to approach balance in a balanced way.A friend came to see me last year--and she doesn't mind me telling this story--a friend came to see me last year and said, “Nigel, I've read your book.And I realize that my life is completely out of balance.It's totally dominated by work.I work 10 hours a day;I commute two hours a day.All of my relationships have failed.There's nothing in my life apart from my work.So I've decided to get a grip and sort it out.So I joined a gym.”(Laughter)Now I don't mean to mock, but being a fit 10-hour-a-day office rat isn't more balanced;it's more fit.(Laughter)Lovely though physical exercise may be, there are other parts to life--there's the intellectual side;there's the emotional side;there's the spiritual side.And to be balanced, I believe we have to attend to all of those areas--not just do 50 stomach crunches.Now that can be daunting.Because people say, “Bloody hell mate, I haven't got time to get fit.You want me to go to church and call my mother.” And I understand.I truly understand how that can be daunting.But an incident that happened a couple of years ago gave me a new perspective.My wife, who is somewhere in the audience today, called me up at the office and said, “Nigel, you need to pick our youngest son”--Harry--“up from school.” Because she had to be somewhere else with the other three children for that evening.So I left work an hour early that afternoon and picked Harry up at the school gates.We walked down to the local park, messed around on the swings, played some silly games.I then walked him up the hill to the local cafe, and we shared a pizza for two, then walked down the hill to our home, and I gave him his bath and put him in his Batman pajamas.I then read him a chapter of Roald Dahl's “James and the Giant Peach.” I then put him to bed, tucked him in, gave him a kiss on his forehead and said, “Goodnight, mate,” and walked out of his bedroom.As I was walking out of his bedroom, he said, “Dad?” I went, “Yes, mate?” He went, “Dad, this has been the best day of my life, ever.” I hadn't done anything, hadn't taken him to Disney World or bought him a Playstation.Now my point is the small things matter.Being more balanced doesn't mean dramatic upheaval in your life.With the smallest investment in the right places, you can radically transform the quality of your relationships and the quality of your life.Moreover, I think, it can transform society.Because if enough people do it, we can change society's definition of success away from the moronically simplistic notion that the person with the most money when he dies wins, to a more thoughtful and balanced definition of what a life well lived looks like.And that, I think, is an idea worth spreading.(Applause)
第三篇:“獲取生活與工作的平衡”引發(fā)辭職潮
“獲取生活與工作的平衡”引發(fā)辭職潮
近期,智聯(lián)招聘發(fā)布針對廣州白領(lǐng)的調(diào)查報告指出,除了薪酬和晉升受限外,“工作與生活失衡”是職場人跳槽的第三大原因,工作不再是生活的全部。
這項調(diào)查分別從白領(lǐng)事業(yè)信心度指數(shù)及跳槽意愿等方面進行,廣州地區(qū)共收回有效問卷717份。調(diào)查顯示,廣州地區(qū)白領(lǐng)對今年工作事業(yè)的信心指數(shù)為3.36,比全國水平的3.32高(信心指數(shù)最高為5)。不過在28個城市中,廣州信心指數(shù)只是排名第14。指數(shù)最高位前三位是蘇州、杭州、無錫,上海和北京分部排名第23和24。
之前該機構(gòu)進行的招聘調(diào)查就表示今年春季招聘旺季從3月份提前到2月份,而這份針對廣州白領(lǐng)的報告指,已經(jīng)有12.12%的白領(lǐng)正在辦理入職/離職手續(xù),有23.54%已經(jīng)在更新簡歷;而有意向的白領(lǐng)占到了35.66%,肯定不會跳槽的比例僅為28.68%。跳槽或有意向跳槽的比例都比全國的平均水平高。全國數(shù)字顯示,目前正在辦理入職/離職的比例占到了9.8%,已經(jīng)在更新簡歷的白領(lǐng)占到了21.3%;而有意向的白領(lǐng)占到了33.4%,肯定不會跳槽的比例為35.5%。
值得注意的是,除“薪酬水平”和“職業(yè)晉升受限”這兩個現(xiàn)實原因外,“工作與生活嚴重失衡”也成為很多職場人想跳槽的一大原因。2014年廣州白領(lǐng)跳槽原因中,不滿薪酬、職業(yè)發(fā)展受限、工作與生活失衡是首要的三大原因。該機構(gòu)分析認為,之前在最佳雇主調(diào)研中,已經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)“獲取生活與工作的平衡”是中國各城市職場人未來3年職業(yè)規(guī)劃的首要目標。此次2014年廣州地區(qū)白領(lǐng)跳槽調(diào)研再次印證這一職場動態(tài)。對于職場人來說,工作不再是生活的全部,工作和個人生活的平衡越來越重要。這是80后、90后逐漸占領(lǐng)職場后一大趨勢,也是雇主不得不考慮的重要因素。
第四篇:英語作文平衡生活和工作
How to kick a balance work and life There is a hot discuss about the problem of “work to life or life to work”.Some people hold the view of“work to life”,but some of the people think that we are lifing to work.So whether consider which statement is correct,I have to say,everyone should stick a balance work and life.Maybe most people have a work,but only a little part of people have a satisfying work.Therefore,in order to find a balance in life and work,we can work carefully and efficient,then finish the tasks on time.After work everyday,we should spend more time with family,eat together,go out for a work or waching TV together and so on.Only in this way can we not keep the bad relationship with family members because of work.What’s more,we can also use the vacation days to go to travel with family,friends or colleagues.So,on the one hand,we can relaxing ourselves from the nervous work.And on the other hand,we can get along well with others and keep the balance between work and life.In a word,we have to work,but we should enjoy work,even the enjoyment that work boring to us.Generally speaking,having a good work and life balance means that your actions and priorities are aligned in a way that is taking care of what is really important to you.We can work in life and life in work.
第五篇:(TED英文演講)如何實現(xiàn)工作與生活的平衡——觀后感
How to achieve work-life balance —— Feedback This issue between work and life is so popular that most of us can’t escape, including the speaker.The speaker once was a classic workaholic who often neglected his family.Later, he found it dull and unsatisfied, which made up his mind to look into people’s struggling with work-life balance.And he shared us with his four observations.Firstly, if people want to make any progress on this issue, we must have a necessary useful method.Such as flexi-time, paternity leave and dress-down Fridays have been proved not so useful as expected.They all served to mask the core issue that certain jobs and career choices are fundamentally incompatible with being meaningfully engaged with family.The second observation is that we need face the truth that corporations aren’t going to solve this issue for us.The reason is obvious for companies, why should they concern their employees’ life? All they think and want is to make sure of us well-utilized.So, as individuals, we should take control and responsibility for the type of lives that we want to lead instead of looking for helps.If you don’t design your life, someone else will be your designer, and you may not like their idea about balance.The third observation is we have to be careful with the time frame that we choose upon which to judge our balance.We had better sit down and wrote out a detailed, step-by-step description of our balanced day.Maybe we have too much thing which can’t finish in one day, we must elongate our time rationally.To balance our work and life, there must be a middle way.The last one, we need to approach balance in a balanced way.Being balanced doesn’t mean dramatic upheaval in your life.With the smallest investment in right places, you can radically transform the quality of your relationships and the quality of your life.In conclusion, if we can make progress in work-life balance, then we can transform society.We can convert the society’s definition of success into a more thoughtful and balanced definition of what a life well-lived looks like.
