How’s Your Posture?
Want to feel good about your work, your family . . . yourself?
Try picking up that chin and pulling back those shoulders.
That’s right — carry yourself with confidence. Studies have found that people who consciously improve their posture actually end up improving their self-esteem. And it’s one of the keys to living a 360-degree life. What’s that, you ask?
Confidence Carry-Over
When you carry yourself with confidence, not only do you feel better about yourself, but you make a better impression on other people, too. You know, like that new boss you’re dying to impress.
The Surround-Sound Life
Another key to standing tall on life’s tilt-a-wheel ride? Living a balanced, 360° life, says Cathie Black, president of Hearst Magazines and mom of two. That means maintaining equilibrium between work and everything else. Sure, you can constantly pull 80-hour work weeks, but you won’t produce your best stuff if you do. Spending time with family, meeting new people, taking trips — having a life outside the office — is necessary in order to fuel your creative energies and recharge yourself.
You also need to ask yourself what you want most out of life, says Black — not once, but often, because the person you are at 21 is very different from the person you are at 35, 47, or 61. Priorities, dreams, and goals change. Refocus and go after yours!
