平衡生活与工作

第一篇：平衡生活与工作

新时代的女性如何平衡生活与工作的天平

近年来“获得工作与生活的平衡”在白领中广受热议。所谓“工作和生活的平衡”主要是指职业人士如何处理工作和生活时间支配，或者说是关于优先次序和价值观念的问题。有学者提出了与IQ、EQ并行的TQ（时商）的观点。

大家对卓别林30年代出的一部电影《摩登时代》一定不陌生，他扮演的工人，整天和冷酷无情的机器竞赛，分秒必争工作呆板重复、枯燥无味。电影里有血有肉的人和冰冷刻板的机器，形成了鲜明对比，给观众以强烈地视觉冲击。这就是典型的泰勒思想科学的管理理论，今天看来这并不科学。

而随着世界范围内经济竞争加剧，人们生活与工作的失衡现象越来越明显。有调查表明:

作为受过高等教育的女性，由于家庭周期的特点，在职业生涯发展中形成“两个高峰一个低谷”。第一个高峰是毕业后进入职场的最初几年，在这一时期，女性或者未婚，或者已婚但无子女，可以在工作上投入较大精力。之后，随着子女的出生，很自然地遇到职业发展中的“低谷”。一般在35岁左右后的十余年时间，随着子女可以托人代管、逐渐自立，这时的女性又可以在工作上深入投入，获得了“第二个高峰”的时间和精力条件。

而我们刚毕业的职场新人，可能有更多的时间用于个人休闲、自我完善、投入工作，但这并不表明目标的实现、成功的取得会自然发生。作为职场女性，如果只是一味沉浸在“一个人的潇洒”中，任由岁月毫无计划流逝，即便可以实现物质丰富、生活轻松，但未免白白浪费了自身的独特优势，同时，也将无法满足“自我实现”的最终需求。因此，我们应该及早地做好自身的生涯规划，在认识自我的基础上确立生涯目标，根据自身实际和需求，结合环境条件，确立好中长期目标，并找到实现的路径。时间作为一种资源，若不妥善管理，就有被浪费的可能。若我们能把握好“第一高峰”与“第二高峰”自然连接的独特优势，这段“黄金时间”将能产生巨大的效益。所以我们应该根据设立的目标制定时间进度表，监控并限制生活中的“时间窃贼”等方法，妥善平衡职场与生活，成为时间管理的高手。对于我们即将毕业的大学生，在未来的职场生涯中，我们应该如何平衡我们的生活和工作呢？

首先，是认识自己,做个头脑清醒的人。清楚地知道自己喜欢什么，追求什么；对自己来讲，最重要的是什么。只有想清楚这点，才会在各种选择中做出适合自己的选择。只有清楚自己的追求，才不至于患得患失，耿耿于怀。其次，是规划自己,做个善于筹划的人，生活与工作，是人生天平的两侧，需要平衡，生活才更和谐，人生才更精彩。

而作为新时代即将步入职场的女性，我们应该在搞好自己工作的同时，培养自己的兴趣爱好、建立自己的社交圈子，来丰富生活、陶冶情操，获得精神上的高质量生活，借以使生活和工作得以平衡。

TED演讲：如何平衡生活与工作

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)

“获取生活与工作的平衡”引发辞职潮

近期，智联招聘发布针对广州白领的调查报告指出，除了薪酬和晋升受限外，“工作与生活失衡”是职场人跳槽的第三大原因，工作不再是生活的全部。

这项调查分别从白领事业信心度指数及跳槽意愿等方面进行，广州地区共收回有效问卷717份。调查显示，广州地区白领对今年工作事业的信心指数为3.36，比全国水平的3.32高(信心指数最高为5)。不过在28个城市中，广州信心指数只是排名第14。指数最高位前三位是苏州、杭州、无锡，上海和北京分部排名第23和24。

之前该机构进行的招聘调查就表示今年春季招聘旺季从3月份提前到2月份，而这份针对广州白领的报告指，已经有12.12%的白领正在办理入职/离职手续，有23.54%已经在更新简历；而有意向的白领占到了35.66%，肯定不会跳槽的比例仅为28.68%。跳槽或有意向跳槽的比例都比全国的平均水平高。全国数字显示，目前正在办理入职/离职的比例占到了9.8%，已经在更新简历的白领占到了21.3%；而有意向的白领占到了33.4%，肯定不会跳槽的比例为35.5%。

值得注意的是，除“薪酬水平”和“职业晋升受限”这两个现实原因外，“工作与生活严重失衡”也成为很多职场人想跳槽的一大原因。2014年广州白领跳槽原因中，不满薪酬、职业发展受限、工作与生活失衡是首要的三大原因。该机构分析认为，之前在最佳雇主调研中，已经发现“获取生活与工作的平衡”是中国各城市职场人未来3年职业规划的首要目标。此次2014年广州地区白领跳槽调研再次印证这一职场动态。对于职场人来说，工作不再是生活的全部，工作和个人生活的平衡越来越重要。这是80后、90后逐渐占领职场后一大趋势，也是雇主不得不考虑的重要因素。

第四篇：英语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英文演讲)如何实现工作与生活的平衡——观后感

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.
