]]> Comment on Technology and the Cavewoman: Where is the Balance? by Stasha Vollman http://www.wendybodnar.com/blog/?p=25#comment-11 Stasha Vollman Tue, 22 Mar 2011 19:11:59 +0000 http://www.wendybodnar.com/blog/?p=25#comment-11 Interesting article! It really strikes close to home for me. I am currently a full time realtor in Edmonton but also a wife and a mother of a 15 month old, very active baby boy. It can get stressful trying to juggle everything on a daily basis from work to baby to cleaning, cooking and everything in between. I have learned that you CAN do mostly everything, but you need specific systems in place to get ANY one thing accomplished at a time. I find scheduling is a key component to a productive day. With my son being so active, it is hard to accomplish much while he is awake and running around. Knowing his schedule and that he takes two 1.5 – 2 hour naps a day, I plan my day accordingly and pencil in that time for only work. Whether I am calling past clients, doing paperwork or researching property for a client, that is my time to put my head down and really get a lot done. Conversely, during my son’s playtime it is time for he and I to spend quality time and I have realized that barring an emergency, most people are ok with a phone call returned within an hour or so. With regards to your article, I think one of the most important things to be taken from it is the “me” time that each person needs, regardless of the line of work you are in. I agree that that time is so important to our physical and mental health. So whether it’s an hour to have a family dinner uninterrupted, 2 weeks to go on a wonderful vacation or 5 minutes of just peace and quiet it is so important to also remember to pencil THAT time into your day and your life as well!
