Waking
up early in the morning, readying a wholesome breakfast, cooking and packing a
delicious lunch, then getting ready to office, taking care of sundry household
requirements — these are some of the daily chores of an average working
woman
.
And after all these and a
hurried bath, if you rush to office, things are not easy on the work front
either. Even the modern workplace comes with its own share of
tensions.
The multiple-roles
that women find themselves compelled to play these days, often bring about a
major dip in energy level. If you are a person who does things in the last
minute, then things may not be that easy.
A little bit of planning and
time management may help a great deal to get rid of stress at home. The thumb
rule is — do not put away things for the next day.
Judicious use of weekends or
holidays is important in a working woman’s life. Not only must you plan
for the next day, but also plan for the week ahead.
Do the laundry and iron the
clothes. If you can decide clothes for each day of the ensuing week and keep the
accessories along with it ready, you have half won your battle. Otherwise
choosing a dress and finding the accessories will take away a major chunk of
your precious time in the mornings.
Similarly, encourage your
husband to arrange his wardrobe for a week. If you have school-going children,
it is important that you keep not only their uniforms and shoes ready, but also
their casual clothes for after-school hours.
