Are You Open 24-7?

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

In this huge “struggle to juggle,” I hear from so many burned-out professionals just trying to keep all of their balls in the air. From all different parts of the country, age groups, and specialties, people are screaming “UNCLE!” It brings to mind my all time favorite Seinfeld quote, “SERENITY NOW!” Are you available to everyone, all the time, via your cell phone, email, pager, or messenger pigeon? Are you missing out on living, because you are living to work? Are you “open” to the world 24 hours a day, 7 days a week? If you do not set very clear and intentional boundaries around your technology, you are a walking convenience store.
