Implementing new habits is crucial for your growth. We have a few tips on how to build new habits that will help you lead a healthy and happy lifestyle.

Build one habit at a time: It is essential that you develop only one habit at a time. This will help you exert all your focus on the developed habit and become an expert. Describe your strategy in writing, including your daily goals and record the times you achieved them. Finally, keep track of your progress in the chosen new habit.

Reward Yourself: Don’t forget to reward yourself, as it helps to keep you motivated to achieve your goal efficiently. However small, a reward is good motivation to persist and be proud of your accomplishment.

Lastly, there are a few books that helped our team implement new habits successfully. Please take a look at them and let us know how they helped you implement new practices.

For many women, raising a child is a huge milestone and a fundamental source of purpose in life. Inevitably, starting a family will coincide with other facets of life – namely, your career. No matter how long your maternity leave is, returning to work might cause some unwanted stress. Here are a few different options to ease your way back into your regular work routine.

Accept That There will be a Transition Period

No matter how much you plan or prepare, there’s no remedy for missing your child. Try to have a routine in place as much as possible and practice it before your return. Having a good support system, whether it be your spouse, parents/in-laws, or a nanny, is crucial. Planning your routine in advance and working out the kinks will help to minimize stress and uncertainty. To combat the emotional impact, consider a planned FaceTime call with your newborn at lunch or budget time after work that will consistently be dedicated to your child. Even with those provisions in place, it’s understandable that the first few weeks or even months will be a challenging period, it is only normal.

Consider Working from Home

Provided that your employer agrees to it, working from home one day a week could certainly help to alleviate the impact of returning from mat leave. When discussing with your employer, be sure to iron out all the details of this plan. How long will it last? Will you work the same number of hours from home compared to when you are in the office? Is this something your employer is even comfortable with? If so, consider working from home on Wednesday, this will break up the work week and make the time spent away feel much more manageable.

Love the Job You’re Returning to

This is probably the most important thing. Of course, we all know that work can sometimes feel like a necessary evil and returning may have everything to do with financial obligations, but if you’re returning to a job that you truly enjoy, this won’t be the case. Sometimes it’s the work itself, other times it’s the people you work with, but no matter the reason, being happy to return to your job will alleviate a portion of the stress. Loving your job will undoubtedly make the transition back into work-life easier.

When considering a new position, one of the main factors that people are concerned with is the job title, which we were always taught to chase. While a title is essential to indicate the level of experience and seniority at the company, both internally and to the external world, focusing too much on it can limit your success. A more beneficial approach when exploring a new offer is concentrating on the new skills you will learn. Unfortunately, many positions are usually rejected because of the “wrong title,” which closes doors on significant opportunities for advancement.

On the other hand, titles can be misleading, as companies use them to entice talent by adding “Senior” or “Manager” to more junior roles. However, if you dig deeper into the job description and ask questions about the day-to-day tasks during the interview, you can differentiate between the roles that will help you advance your career growth and those that will restrict it.

In addition, associating yourself with a specific job title will make you replaceable by any person who can perform the same role. Instead, you can set yourself apart by positioning yourself as a brand and showcasing the value only you can bring to the table.
