Seasonal Blogging, Startups and Work/life balance
2008-10-17 14:30:00 Lisa Rousseau writes a great post here on Work/Life balance and startup companies. Her post, and the video from Jason Calcanis inspired me to add my own comments. I am sure we all have experianced this pull of passions, from work (career), home life, and time for ourselves. There are so many things to focus on and it seems so little time. As for Jason's YouTube video, here's my 2 cents 1) The notion that there are "Excellent", "Great", "Average" people I would say is incorrect. I think everyone is 'excellent' at something, and many are average at most things. The trick is probably to figure out what your are excellent at and what you are passionate about and work at that.

Work-Life Balance has become some kind of a cliché, and the more it figures in our talks, the less we seem to have of it. To begin with, the name itself is a misnomer. Work is a part of life, how can we balance a part with the whole and is it not vain and futile to even try to do that ? What is actually aimed at is a Work Life-Personal Life Balance. But even that becomes unnecessary when we have the right attitudes, rooted in right values, which create right perceptions. We do not need to get the happy balance in our lives, we merely have to remove the unhappy imbalance that is there in our minds.

Keeping the work / life balance, pressure avoidance.
2007-10-14 23:29:00 ..Or should I say, the gambling / life balance. I've always known there was an importance to maintaining a good balance to life, but I hadn't realised the real reason why, how the mechanism works, until this week. The importance of how I live my life away from the computer and how it affects my gambling and trading has always been obvious to me. Having a life away from gambling keeps perspective and reality in check, staying healthy and fit maintains trading stamina and a clear head. The importance of how and when I should take time away, and why that matters has been less than clear, in fact, not something I've spent much time considering. I've always been into figuring out how our heads work, how the various thinking mechanisms tick, inputs and outputs. Though obviously nothing is ever clear cut with the human brain and our emotions, we're hardly a rational species at times. But happenings this week made a few things clearer as to why it...

big idea: work:life balance
2007-09-08 00:35:00 We've all tried to do this in creative briefs for technology products, the idea of greater "me time." It's been done to death and it started with some lame "Beaches" spot for AT&T back in the late 80s. However, there's never been as much attention on the work:life balance issue as there is today and there's never been so much inertia on behalf of employees and employers to face up to the realities of it. Creatives usually rip these "me time" briefs up and start afresh, but here are couple of spots that attack what's basically the same brief and do something that's really interesting.It shows the power of film as a medium where creatives can use their imagination to bring new thoughts ideas to people. It's the subtle and clever twist on reality that makes them so appealing. Solution: Dramatize the problem as a trap, so people wake up to face the reality.Here's another way to do it.Solution: Imagine if leaving work early was celebratedPlease note that both examples are fro...

Work-life balance for City traders is aim for CMC Markets HR director Anne
2007-07-31 13:44:00 A newly appointed HR director has pledged to bring work-life balance to the City. Anne Stevens, this month appointed global head of HR at online trading company CMC Markets, believes her appointment can mark a shift in thinking for the financial services industry. The former European director of professional development at IBM Business Consulting Services is CMC's first strategic-level HR professional. "This is a significant appointment," she told Personnel Today. "This is a competitive industry that is not always recognised for its focus on people." Stevens said her goals included promoting "a work-life balance not usually featured in the financial services industry".

CMC founder and chief executive Peter Cruddas has been tagged the City's richest man. He has a fortune in excess of £1bn and made headlines this...
