Liz Rae wrote on Elite Daily on 13/3/15 an
interesting article about 15 qualities that you can be reflected in meaning you
are a workaholic as the title says.
1.
You
get on average of 4 to 5 hours of sleep per night. And it’s not because you can’t
sleep because of work, well, it’s, but it’s also due to you think life is too
short for you to sleep.
2.
You’re
either incredibly organized or talented hot mess. Liz Rae confesses that she
has three calendars, not only one. She has them on the phone, online and on her
wall.
3.
Your
first instinct when you wake up is to make coffee. This point is even more
important than to think about what hour you have to wake up on the morning. Firstly
is the coffee anyway.
4.
You
also think about your coffee intake all day. Coffee is for this person like a
drug.
5.
You
find the most efficient way to do everything. Everything means sleep, travel,
spend your money even more going to the bathroom. Moreover, if something is
wasting your time you get angry.
6.
You
know everyone
7.
You
value hard work. Workaholic doesn’t take the easy path. If you slack off you
know it’s inefficient.
8.
You
know the best way to use smartphone. In your phone the app you use is that one
that finds you the quickest way to go to work, to file an expense report, to do
mobile banking…
9.
You
know how to make work exciting. Because you like to live day-by-day with jokes
or with taking lunch with new people every day.
10.
You
don’t take days off
11.
You
get annoyed when people tell you you’re a workaholic. As Liz Rae says, you
already know this fact, so why do people feel the need to tell you?
12.
You
also get annoyed when people don’t work as hard.
13.
You’re
driven. Liz Rae explains this by meaning that you have underlying goals, that
you want to change the world and that you’re doing what’s best for you.
14.
You’ve
a small group of friends. You only want friends who understand your effort to
work as much.
15.
You’re
successful. Making money, changing the lives of others and working on
large-scale projects is what drives you to get out of bed at 4am.
I don’t consider myself as a strict workaholic
person but I have that impression in some points. For example, I consider
myself with points 2, 3, 4, 5, 9, 11, 12, 14 and of course 13 and 15. They are
many but not all of them are exactly done in my life. I have spent a joyful
time reading this article because I have heard many time of this but I have
never seen anything written down. That’s nice.
