While a drive to succeed at work is of course a good thing, long days, overtime and all that daily grind can lead to burnout and a range of physical health problems. Being overworked can also take a toll on your family and relationships.
Michael Hyatt joins us today to tell us about his own breaking point with work/life balance, leading him to write his book, Win at Work and Succeed at Life. He talks to us today about "the cult of overwork,” and how to prioritize your life and career goals. He also discusses the value of being nonproductive and just doing nothing!
Michael Hyatt is no stranger to success himself, he is the Chief Executive Officer and founder of Michael Hyatt & Company. He has scaled multiple companies over the years, including a $250M publishing company with 700+ employees and his own leadership development company that has grown over 60% year over year for the past 4 years. Under his leadership, Michael Hyatt & Company has been featured in the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing companies in America for three years in a row and in 2020 the company was named to Inc.'s Best Work Places list.
