114 The change in lifestyle that comes with starting a job is often drastic and life changing. Whether it’s due to the difference in hours, the different activities you’re encouraged to engage in outside of work, or just the fact that you have more money coming in, you may feel that your life will never be the same again once you start working full time. However, there are ways to make sure this doesn’t negatively affect your quality of life too much, so your transition from student to employee goes as smoothly as possible. Table of Contents MoneyTime managementHealth And Exercise HabitsRelationshipsSleep qualityConclusion Money A new job brings with it an entirely new lifestyle. When you leave your home, you will be exposed to new experiences and the learning of new skills. Your hours and workload will most likely have changed from what it was like when you were unemployed. Your social life might take a turn for the worse as well, depending on how much time you are spending at work now compared to before when you were unemployed. One thing for sure is that your financial situation changes drastically too – not always in a good way. Some people find themselves living pay check to pay check once they start working full-time. They struggle to make ends meet because their income isn’t enough to support their expenses. And then there are those who get into debt because they’re unable to resist making unnecessary purchases after finally having money again (it can be tough for some people). The reality is that most of us don’t just stop being irresponsible once we’re gainfully employed! It takes effort and discipline, but it can definitely happen! Time management The following are some tips on how to manage your time while working and living a job: o Take care of yourself. In the event that you are sleep-deprived, try going outside for thirty minutes and taking long walks. This will also help if you have a desk job. o Find time for fun and interests in your schedule. Make time for hobbies as it will give you something to look forward to when at work. o Schedule socializing with friends, co-workers, family members into your calendar so that it becomes a part of your routine rather than something done occasionally or out of necessity. This way you can maintain relationships and be more connected to people in general without feeling guilty about not being able to spend as much time with them as possible due to work constraints. There is no reason why we cannot integrate our personal life and our professional life together. Health And Exercise Habits Starting a job also means that you’ll have less time to make changes in your habits. Your goals might be different than they were when you were unemployed: If, for example, when you weren’t working, one of your goals was to lose weight by going on long walks every day, but now that you’re working 40 hours per week with an hour commute each way in the car and not enough free time on the weekends to get out for any exercise then this is something that needs to be changed in order for you to maintain your healthy lifestyle. You can start by finding time during your workday (or even while eating lunch) to at least take the stairs or walk around the building. Relationships Having a job is undoubtedly going to change how you live. Maybe it means you need to start getting up earlier or stop staying out so late. Your work may also affect your personal relationships, for better or for worse. It takes hard work and sacrifices, but the reality is, once you’ve finished figuring out how much time you need to spend at home, how often your job will require travel and how many hours of sleep will be enough for you each day–you’re finally ready to get started! A job changes a person’s lifestyle in multiple ways, some good and some bad. Job-related stress can lead to negative emotional states such as anxiety, anger and depression that are linked to heart disease and other chronic conditions like diabetes. In contrast, work can provide meaningful social interactions with colleagues that can lower stress levels. Sleep quality Studies have found that people who hold full-time jobs sleep poorly. Well, with the other demands of a full-time job, it makes sense! Studies have found that people who work these long hours are four times more likely to experience insomnia than people who only put in 40 hours a week. Research also shows an association between longer work hours and poor sleep quality. Increased daytime sleepiness is also reported by those who work many long hours. Not only do we have to make up for the sleep that we missed out on during the day (hence going to bed later), but our circadian rhythm (the natural pattern of physiological processes) is disrupted due to the reduced exposure to light at night. Conclusion In my experience, starting a job affects your lifestyle by limiting the time you have available to do the things you enjoy doing. Starting a job can also affect your sleep cycle and make it more difficult to maintain physical activity or go to sleep early enough. You might also find that it becomes harder to maintain your morning routine or fit in errands before work. In many cases, having a job that is close to home can offer some relief from these effects. If you’re unable to get one of these types of jobs, then being creative with your schedule will help. For example, if there are ways for you to be able to come into work late every once in a while so that you can start earlier during other days of the week; or if there are ways for you to take on more responsibilities at home while still maintaining a demanding job outside of the house; or if there are other arrangements which allow you more time outside of working hours than what would be typically allotted.
