[quote=Anonymous]NP here. Thanks to the C-suite and other "big job" posters. So great and useful to read your advice. I asked my manager (very successful executive, three awesome kids, 18, 12, 10), for her advice. She gave me lots, but the top two (meta) bits were these: 1) whenever you're about to do something that feels difficult, ask yourself, how can I make it easier? then follow through and make it happen (i.e. don't just "coast" because that's actually the harder choice in the long term; make the change for the better). In her words, "there are no prizes to making your life harder than it has to be." and 2) figure out what recharges you, and don't skimp on that (for her it's yoga, for me it's seeing friends and sleep).[/quote]
