On the Second Sunday of Advent, we celebrate Peace and the promise of peace on Earth (check out my post on “Happy are the Peacemakers”).
Since I have not recently read a book about “Peace,” I found a chapter entitled “Live in Peace & Balance” in Steven Shallenberger’s Becoming Your Best: The 12 Principles of Highly Successful Leaders.
Shallenberger claims that there are ways to find peace and balance in the midst of chaos and the daily rush of life. You can find peace and balance each and every day. You don’t have to wait until all your challenges and stresses have passed. Peace is always yours to claim.
Thirty percent of employees feel that they are completely burned out or stressed by their jobs, and nearly 40 percent feel that they’ve used up all their energy at the end of each workday. Consider how that affects employee production and turnover!
As a leader, you’ll be more successful if you help employees learn how to manage stress and increase their balance. If you can do that, you’ll likely reduce employee turnover and increase productivity.
Fortunately, there are some things that highly successful leaders can do to find greater peace and balance in their work and personal lives.
