A Happy Employee Is A Better Employee with Sean Dazet, Part 3
Working from home has become more commonplace, even the norm for a lot of companies during the pandemic. And while it has allowed people to continue to work and earn a living despite the circumstances, it has also resulted in a lot more people feeling the effects of burnout, due in part to the blurring of work and rest.
In this third of a four-part series, our host Jordan Benjamin continues his conversation with Sean Dazet about the pros and cons of working remotely, and the importance of knowing when to step back and prioritizing oneself. While it can be tempting to spend all day and night working, Sean emphasizes the value of staying off work after your shift, even if it’s so easy to check an email or read a slack notification.

QUOTES
Jordan on how working remotely has changed the way people do work: "So many people had to move their lives, leave their families, leave their loved ones and the things that they loved to do to give it all up for a job. Which for me, it was transformational. I had no interest in moving to Boston but it was an awesome experience for me that I would never give up or give back to the world. Now in this new day and age, people can find so much more enjoyment and pleasure and success in whatever it is that fills them up, by being able to work from wherever they are.".
Sean on keeping your boundaries and prioritizing yourself over work: "If you take a day off, take a day off. Do not check your email. If you are working all day and you decide to stop at 5:15, or 4:30, or whatever, right? Stop. Don't go back to it. Don't decide you're gonna work at 9 o'clock at night. Because nothing we're doing is that critical. I don't mean to take away from the importance of the work that we all do, but we're not curing cancer or saving babies here."
Sean on why employees need to be working in a stress-free environment as much as possible: "If you're happy, if you're relaxed, if you feel like your life is in order, you are going to be a much more effective employee."
