Work life balance
Although working in your own business often comes with more flexibility and freedom than working under a boss, managing work life balance as a soloist has a whole new set of challenges.
In this section you will discover tips for finding the right balance between your personal life and your work including practical advice on setting priorities, dealing with information overload, how to maintain professional boundaries and avoid burnout. It is also hugely important as part of managing work life balance for soloists to schedule time out each year, so find out whether you are taking enough annual leave.
