讓自己有片刻的安靜

我們都需要安靜的時刻。安靜可以恢復神經系統,幫助我們維持能量,使我們的大腦更加適應和反應。
讓你自己每天都有寧靜的片刻。例如,你可以用5分鐘關掉你的電腦屏幕,讓自己閉目養神,或是走出辦公室片刻,找一個寧靜的場所,讓自己鬆懈一些時間。如果可能,關掉你的手機幾個小時,甚至一整天。週末,在大自然中散步。
為了獲得這些時刻的完全恢復益處,進行靜默冥想或沉思。
這聽起來可能有些不可思議,但它可以像幾個深呼吸一樣簡單。

Let yourself have a moment of silence
We all need quiet moments. Silence can restore the nervous system, help us maintain energy, and make our brain more responsive.
Let yourself have a quiet moment every day. For example, you can shut off your computer screen 5 minutes, let your eyes closed, or out of the office for a moment, looking for a quiet place, get yourself some time relax. If possible, turn off your mobile phone for several hours, or even all day, walk in the nature during weekend.
In order to achieve the full recovery benefits of these moments, do some meditates.

It may sound strange, but it can be as simple as a few deep breaths.

判斷你願意等待多久來獲得升遷的機會

工作績效是你在職場上獲得晋昇的一個重要因素,但是掌握升遷的時機也是至關重要的。
如果你想入圍成為中高階主管,你就要判斷是否值得你堅持等候來獲得這個升級機會?
如果你是公司或是部門里的二把手,而你的老闆是年輕又很能幹的,你可能就要等很長的時間來獲得拔擢。但是,如果你知道這位老闆自己正在尋覓新的發展機會,那麼你獲得取而代之所需要的時間,就可能不會太長的。另外,你也要觀察你的同僚的機會如何?他領先你嗎?
如果你的機會實在不多,或是需要比較長的時間,那麼,或許是你考慮轉換跑道的時間了。例如,在公司內其他部門找新的發展機會。

Determine how long you are willing to wait for a promotion
Job performance is an important factor in your career promotion, but the timing of your promotion is also critical.
If you want to be a senior executive, you have to decide if it's worth your wait to get the chance to upgrade
If you are number two person in company in the department, and your boss is young and very capable, you may have to wait a long time to get promotion. However, if you know the boss you are looking for new opportunities, then, you get replaced by the time required, it may not be too long. In addition, how do you also want to watch your colleagues the opportunity? Is he leading you?
If you don't have a lot of opportunities, or if you need a long time, then maybe you have to think about the time to change the runway, for example, looking for new opportunities in other parts of the company.

在你的行程上做些小改變,來平衡你的工作與家庭生活

身為負責養家的父母總是要力平衡工作和家庭生活時,他們常常感到需要做出劇烈的改變以獲得他們想要的靈活性。但是找一份新工作或做兼職並不總是必要的(也不會總是解决問題)。
相反地,試著對你的工作排程或工作安排做些小的調整。例如,你可能每隔一周提早一次離開辦公室,或是抽空去參加家人去參加偶爾的社交活動,或者下飛機后先直接回家。
這些措施聽起來很小,但能讓你有足够的自由來堅持現在的工作。另外,這樣做也不足以傷害你的表現,而你的老闆可能根本不會注意到它們。這種自我導向、非正式的靈活性有時比具體安排更好。
Make small changes in your journey to balance your work and family life
Who is responsible to support parents? Always want to force balance work and family life, people often feel the need to make drastic changes to get what they want flexibility. But looking for a new job or part-time is not always necessary (and not always can solve the problem).
On the contrary, try to arrange your work schedule or do a small work arrangement to adjustments. For example, you may be once a week earlier time to leave the office, or taking the time to join the family occasional social activity, or after the plane landing straight go home first.

These measures may sound small, but can let you have enough freedom to work now. In addition, it is not enough to hurt you, and your boss will not notice them. Such self-oriented, informal arrangements better than flexibility sometimes.

在想要對外轉換跑道謀職前,可以考慮在現有企業學習成長

當你想為下一個職業機會建立你的技能時,到其他公司尋找職位是很有誘惑力的。但是在你當前的企業中加深你的專業知識通常是最容易的。
畢竟,你已經投入了時間和精力去建立你的聲譽,贏得了信任,建立了信譽。你對企業文化也很熟悉,可能在內部比在更廣泛的行業中有更多的機會。
所以你可以開始在離家近些,找一些特別的項目或者有發展的任務。問你的經理是否有適當談的選項,包括任何臨時任務,如接受新的任務,同事的產假或休假期間代理其工作。看看是否有培訓課程,而你的公司是否願意會支付這類培訓課程,支持你的學習成長?
Learn and grow in existing company before consider to change job
When you want to build your skills for the next career opportunity, it's tempting to find positions in other companies, but it's often easiest to deepen your expertise in your current company.
After all, you've invested time and energy to build your reputation, win trust, build credibility. You're also familiar with corporate culture, and there may be more opportunities in the interior than in the broader industry.
So, you can start something close to home, looking for some special projects or development task. Ask your manager if there is appropriate to talk about options, including any temporary tasks, such as accepting new tasks, agents for colleague’s work during her maternity leave or vacation. See if there are training courses, and your company is willing to pay for this kind of training courses, support your learning and growth?
