Consequences and Costs of Executive Stress
Isn’t it great to be the one who makes the decisions? You probably like being the one in the chair to steer the process. And whether it is your company or you are a top-flight executive, your personality has always meant that you are the driver. You are suited to be the leader. Yet, there can also be a cost to that role:
The full weight of it all on your shoulders
The endless considerations
The cost benefits analysis
The review for ROI
Always ROI. But what if it goes wrong?
It’s all on you
You like it AND it takes a toll
Every workplace has a distinct culture.
What is the culture of your workplace? It’s time to start thinking about the impact that your workplace has on your health and wellbeing. When you “have it all” but you feel stressed all the time, does “having it all” really matter?
There are ways to release the pressure. But are these mechanisms actually supportive to your health and well-being?
Think about it, the ways you deal with and relieve the pressure? What do you really know about your health and well-being? It’s time you know more. It’s time you have more choices that help you protect your own health. It’s time you have the personalized, tailored support to ensure that it’s all worth it. Health is wealth.
You can have all the checkmarks checked. But once you find out that you have a disease, or the depression & exhaustion start to ruin your ability to enjoy your life, what is it worth? What is it worth if when you retire, your body breaks down and you have a retirement lived in pain because you were hard-charging, big-living, and pushed away all those messages for taking care of your self?
True wealth is when you can accomplish what you want to do, and you feel good. Health is wealth. Prioritize your health. It is going to take more than a vacation to a nice location where you get a massage and a dip in the warm waters. You need to have a real understanding of what it takes to invest in your quality of life. Learn advanced techniques for dealing with the stress that comes with your position, and put the ROI into your own health and well-being.
