Summary of "How To Deal With Stress In Jobs ? | Baramati PSU Bank Manager Case"
Key Wellness Strategies, Self-Care Techniques, and Productivity Tips from the Video
- Perspective on Jobs and Stress:
- Jobs, especially PSU bank jobs, come with high stress due to excessive workload and political pressures.
- One should not take job-related insults or pressures too personally; jobs often involve being in a "servant" role, which historically implies selling one’s time.
- Recognize that being employed means some loss of self-respect, as true self-respect comes from independence, not from being bound by a job.
- Managing Anger and Stress:
- Channel anger and frustration in the right direction rather than just venting or trolling.
- Understand that bosses or superiors often vent their own frustrations and personal problems on employees.
- Maintain emotional detachment to reduce internal stress; external interventions alone won’t eliminate stress.
- Workload and Job Realities:
- bank managers and officers bear the brunt of workload and political pressure, often working long hours (sometimes till 10 pm or beyond).
- clerks have less stress and more stable postings, sometimes financially better off due to location stability.
- Pressure to meet government schemes and targets (e.g., distributing funds before elections) increases workload drastically.
- Practical Advice on Career and Job Tenure:
- Do not glorify or overvalue the job; treat it as a temporary means to an end.
- Plan to leave the job within 10-20 years to avoid burnout and loss of purpose.
- Brilliant individuals might leave within 5 years.
- Above average within 10 years.
- Average within 15 years.
- Below average within 20 years.
- If you remain beyond 20 years without leaving voluntarily, you risk being forced out and becoming ineffective.
- Self-Care and Health:
- Stress impacts physical health, including issues like weight gain and sexual dysfunction.
- Lack of time for proper meals and self-care leads to worsening health and quality of life.
- Prioritize health and personal well-being over excessive work pressure.
- Suggestions for Alternative Income and Work:
- Consider side businesses such as insurance sales, loan agencies, or mutual funds to earn independently.
- Use intelligence and entrepreneurial skills to reduce dependence on stressful jobs.
- Recognize that job security in PSU banks is relative; financial independence is more important.
- Social and Cultural Observations:
- Many people rely on government subsidies and ration systems, which reflects broader societal issues.
- Political pressures heavily influence workload and stress in government jobs.
- Embrace gratitude if coming from a poor background and gaining employment, but remain aware of the limits of such jobs.
- Mental Attitude and Mindset:
- Stop over-identifying with the job; it is a "half-pay" job and a compulsion.
- Learn to laugh off insults and pressures; develop resilience like politicians and public figures who face criticism regularly.
- Avoid emotional attachment to the job; cultivate detachment to maintain mental peace.
