Welcome to the New Corner Office, 30 00:01:41,120 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: the podcast where we share strategies for thriving in the 31 00:01:44,480 --> 00:01:48,560 Speaker 1: new world of work or location, and ours are more 32 00:01:48,560 --> 00:01:52,800 Speaker 1: flexible than in the past. Today's tip is to do 33 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:56,520 Speaker 1: the fun work. We all have parts of our job 34 00:01:56,560 --> 00:02:00,120 Speaker 1: that we really enjoy. Many of us also don't do 35 00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 1: as much of this fun work as we'd like, or 36 00:02:03,400 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: often answering emails or going to meetings or otherwise filling 37 00:02:06,760 --> 00:02:10,680 Speaker 1: our time. Make time for the fun work, and work 38 00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:17,040 Speaker 1: will feel more fun. As people might gather from listening 39 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: to this podcast. I really like writing, and I'm very 40 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,440 Speaker 1: fortunate to spend a big chunk of my work time 41 00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:26,240 Speaker 1: doing just that. But some of the writing I do 42 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,720 Speaker 1: is more fun than other kinds. I have certain topics 43 00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,919 Speaker 1: I love writing about, often economic topics or things related 44 00:02:33,960 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 1: to women in the workforce, or maybe memoir type anecdotes 45 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:39,880 Speaker 1: about my own life. The market for some of this 46 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,040 Speaker 1: is slim, so I generally need to post it on 47 00:02:43,080 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: my own blog, and when I get busy, it's easy 48 00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,800 Speaker 1: not to do this sort of writing. In general, it 49 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: builds my audience, but there is no immediate financial payoff, 50 00:02:53,919 --> 00:02:58,360 Speaker 1: and so my blog tends to get slim pickings. But 51 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:01,800 Speaker 1: then I realized I feel crabby about work in general 52 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:04,720 Speaker 1: when it's all stuff I have to do as opposed 53 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 1: to things I want to do. So best to make 54 00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:11,880 Speaker 1: at least some time for the stuff I want to do. 55 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,800 Speaker 1: I am guessing that you too have parts of your 56 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: job that you really like. Maybe it's creative stuff. Maybe 57 00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:23,280 Speaker 1: it's playing around with ideas where there's no time pressure. 58 00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: Maybe it's a particular collaborator who always nudges you to 59 00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 1: be your most insightful self. When you think about how 60 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 1: you describe your job to people, maybe there's a hint there. 61 00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:37,400 Speaker 1: If you're not sure, really pay attention to when you 62 00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:42,800 Speaker 1: feel happiest and lightest. Figure out when you feel excited 63 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:46,400 Speaker 1: about working and when you don't really want to stop, 64 00:03:47,640 --> 00:03:50,600 Speaker 1: then challenge yourself to do this sort of work as 65 00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:53,920 Speaker 1: much as possible. Maybe every day. It doesn't work, though 66 00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 1: really why not. I'm challenging myself to do some sort 67 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,640 Speaker 1: of free riding each day, whether it's are my blog 68 00:04:01,120 --> 00:04:05,119 Speaker 1: or just dauting down thoughts or journaling. If daily isn't 69 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: quite possible, three times a week is really the bare minimum. 70 00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: I maintain that anything you do three times a week 71 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,280 Speaker 1: is at least somewhat of a habit. If the day 72 00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,880 Speaker 1: tends to get away from you, carve out time for 73 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:21,560 Speaker 1: your favorite work first. Yes, you can spare the time 74 00:04:21,640 --> 00:04:24,360 Speaker 1: between eight and eight thirty am three times a week. 75 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,120 Speaker 1: Trust me. The upside of doing the fun work first 76 00:04:28,480 --> 00:04:31,240 Speaker 1: is that it tends to happen, and you also start 77 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: your day with a big dose of motivation. You will 78 00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:41,360 Speaker 1: be happy about being at work rather than dragging. As 79 00:04:41,400 --> 00:04:43,880 Speaker 1: you start making time for the fun work, a funny 80 00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:47,719 Speaker 1: thing will happen. You'll start weighing all other requests for 81 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:52,240 Speaker 1: your time against this fun feeling. You will know that 82 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,880 Speaker 1: the opportunity cost of a meeting that didn't have to 83 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:59,960 Speaker 1: happen isn't zero. The cost needs to be weighed against 84 00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:02,960 Speaker 1: an hour of time spent doing the work that excites you. 85 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:08,960 Speaker 1: This makes all time feel more valuable, and since time 86 00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:15,560 Speaker 1: is fundamentally limited, that is a good thing. So today, 87 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,320 Speaker 1: figure out how you can make time for the really 88 00:05:18,600 --> 00:05:21,920 Speaker 1: fun parts of your job at least three times per week. 89 00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 1: Don't wait to see what time is left over. Just 90 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:29,039 Speaker 1: as with money, if you wait until the end of 91 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:33,120 Speaker 1: the month to save what's left over, well funny the 92 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: money all seems to disappear. When you save first, you 93 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:41,520 Speaker 1: build wealth. When you do the fun work first, you 94 00:05:41,560 --> 00:05:46,640 Speaker 1: build confidence and happiness in your career, and that is 95 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: a form of wealth. Two. In the meantime, this is Laura, 96 00:05:52,600 --> 00:05:56,159 Speaker 1: Thanks for listening, and here's the succeeding in the New 97 00:05:56,200 --> 00:06:03,039 Speaker 1: Corner Office.
