How To Survive Being A Gen X





A recent survey confirmed Gen X views that they are stressed out by the
pressures and expectations

placed on them by other people ? family, work, relationships, money, ageing?you
name it.

Why do you work?



The obvious reason is money and what the money can provide. Today?s workers
want more

than the money ? particularly younger workers. To look deeper, ask a person who
cannot find work.

Here's to Your Good Health!



You stop and prepare financial plans when your finances are strong and healthy

because you want to stay financial for the rest of your life. It makes good
sense.

The bad news last week was my website was hacked.

The good news is it forced me to look at the site afresh,

especially the ?front window? (home page).



A re-vitalised www.workleisure.com (http://www.workleisure.com/) is now ready.

Success



People crave success. The public perception of success tends to

be narrow - financial success, doing better than the opposition, having

lots of material things. These all focus on appearing to be successful

SHARPEN THE FOCUS



They say children are naturally growing up faster these days, with too little
experience

of enjoying the carefree life of being a child. Childhood, adolescence and
adulthood seem

to overlap, making the distinctions a blur. It's a reflection of almost every

Taking Crazy Risks



Driving a car is full of risks. After we pass a serious car accident we find

This is my latest article which I have just uploaded to the website. It will
appeal to readers who think I got the heading wrong ? that the equation should
read ?work minus leisure = wealth?, i.e. the harder and longer you work, the
more money you make and the more successful you become. The 19th century
Industrial Revolution entrenched that belief, seeing leisure as a frivolous
waste of good working time ? even a competitor. See what reaction you get even
today from your boss and sometimes your workmates when you suggest you want
time off during the week to play golf, let alone pick up the kids from school.
So what is it about leisure that puts it side by side with work as the means to
wealth and success? The answer lies in the ripple effect.

would like to read the full article.

Enjoy Making Life Work Better



It still amazes many people to learn more people visit museums,

art galleries and libraries than attend sporting events. Recreation

still has an image of physical activity and leisure as idle time.

Hey! Who?s interviewing who here?



Sporting clubs usually call players for interview and choose the players they
want.

Does Everything Add Up to Ten?





How do you rate your life so far out of 10?  What would it take to make it a
10?

More money and possessions? More time for self? A happy relationship?
Interesting work?

It?s a difficult question and perhaps the most difficult part is defining 10 ?

Would you mind please replacing the copy of the ?Making Life Work? Thought I
sent you earlier today (my time) with the one below?  The link to ?Enjoy Being
You?? was incorrect.



Also, here is some suggested descriptive wording to go with the title Making
Life Work Thoughts in the Directory section:  ?Motivational thoughts for the
work environment?.

When you travel on holidays, you have an itinerary. You find there are places
through

which you want to hurry and places that are so nice you decide to stay longer.

It?s the same in life. You?re in your present job, traveling on a life-long
journey from your

past to your future.  You move quickly from jobs you don?t like and stay longer

GETTING THE MIX RIGHT



[211569_image008]Would you know a CEO from a Junior Assistant on the beach?

Probably not. At the beach, status is irrelevant, judgment of

others non existent.  People dress (or undress) for comfort.

Their priority is peace and relaxation. Everyone is equal and the

simple needs of life reign supreme.
