Successpert Speaks
To find and keep balance in your life and fend off burnout, Verna Price, Ph.D., recommends the practice of “being present.”
For Price, being present means giving your full attention to whatever you’re doing at any given moment. That means not dwelling on tomorrow’s big meeting when you’re playing with your kids.
“Many people experience burnout because they never really go home from work,” says Price, a motivational speaker, coach, and author of The Power of People. “The physical body may have come home, but the mind, heart, and energy stayed at the office.”
