The 24/7 worker may not be the super achiever

"My daughter who works as a sales professional comes home later than the karaoke GROs", a father was overheard murmuring.

If...you spend so much time at the office or on the road that when you come home, your nine year old asks your wife "Who's he?"

If...you work all the time but never enjoy it or feel fulfilled.

If...you rationalise by saying,"That's the price of success"

If...you work 24/7 to boost your career, but you can't get past a plateau

Then you have clung on to the myth of giving 110%.

Don't get me wrong. I am not against honest labout...but being exceptional is not about being everything and everywhere.

There's a cure: change your thinking. Being an exceptional performer depends also on how refreshed you feel, how energized you are, how confident you must be, and not just how hard or how many hours you've worked.
