Develop Your Plan for Focused Self-Care
Admins are really good at taking care of other people – their executives, colleagues, and fellow admins. But many don’t give themselves the same level of attention.
Yet self-care is crucial for admins, and it’s not just necessary when a personal crisis arises. Positive experiences, such as a new job, moving, getting married, or having a baby, can be stressful, too. The daily grind of life can also take its toll on your physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing. This is why a focused plan for self-care is so important – regardless of what’s going on in your life.
If you’re not taking proper care of yourself, your energy, productivity, and focus can take a nose dive, and lead to burnout. And if your tank is on empty, you’re not good to anyone – yourself, your executive, colleagues, friends, or family.
So how do you keep your tank “full” and take better care of yourself personally and professionally?
