Launched in 2016, the New York Times<\/em>\u2019s Smarter Living section features very smart people sharing very smart tips on how readers can make improvements\u2014both big and small\u2014in their daily lives. (Sample headlines: \u201cHacking Your Way to the Best Hotel Rate,\u201d and \u201cWhat To Do When You\u2019re the Only Woman in the Room.\u201d) Naturally, when the minds behind the popular section came together recently for WeWork Now<\/a>‘s event \u201cFix Your Life With The New York Times<\/em>,\u201d there was a full house. Moderated by founding editor Tim Herrera, the conversation between columnists Jen Doll (a young-adult author and writer of WeWork\u2019s career advice column Work Flow<\/a>), Kristin Wong (a personal finance expert and author of Get Money: Live the Life You Want, Not Just the Life you Can Afford)<\/em>, and Jolie Kerr (host of the podcast Ask a Clean Person<\/em> and owner of no fewer than five vacuums) was packed with candor, laughs, and pro tips. Here are some of the best takeaways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even overachievers can\u2019t accomplish everything<\/em>\u2026 so focus on what makes you feel accomplished.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each panelist has mastered their own particular balancing act. In order to manage a multifaceted career, they explain, you have to be realistic about how much you\u2019re able to get done, but also make sure you\u2019re choosing to do the things that get you<\/em> motivated. Doll referenced a conversation with author Rainbow Rowell on the power of prioritizing. \u201c[Rowell] said, \u2018You\u2019ve got to put the big rocks in the jar first, and then you can put the little rocks in,\u2019\u201d said Doll. \u201c\u2018If you put the little rocks in first, you\u2019re not going to fit in the big rocks.\u2019\u201d And Kerr pointed out that priority lists aren\u2019t necessarily written in ink. \u201cLife is fluid,\u201d she said. \u201cWe\u2019re allowed to care about one thing in 2019 and not care about it in 2020.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Doll (left) explained that we are happier experiencing the journey toward a goal than we are actually achieving it.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t be so fixated on your end goals that you miss out on the joy of the present. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

One of the keys to happiness, the columnists discovered, is understanding that there\u2019s no algorithm for it. \u201cAmbitious people like to define what the finish line is, but I think we enjoy pursuing it more than we enjoy actually reaching it,\u201d Wong explained. \u201cWhen we get there, we\u2019re like, \u2018OK\u2014what\u2019s next?\u2019\u201d Doll explained how a premise that might initially sound disheartening\u2014that the goalposts of fulfillment are always moving\u2014can actually be encouraging. \u201cYou achieve so many moments of happiness as you\u2019re trying to accomplish something big\u2014moments that you think you\u2019re never going to get to,\u201d she said. Added Wong, \u201cSomebody asked me recently, \u2018What do you want to be doing in five years?\u2019 I was like, \u2018I want to be writing, and interviewing cool people, and I\u2019d like to travel.\u2019 And then I was like, \u2018Wait\u2014that\u2019s what I\u2019ve been doing!\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before you make a request from someone, consider their<\/em> point of view.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Get out of your own head and consider the perspective of those you work for, network with, or otherwise feel could help you in your career, each panelist urged. For Kerr, one of the most valuable pieces of career advice she ever got came from her first boss. \u201cHe said, \u2018Jolie, no one is going to care about your career as much as you do,\u2019\u201d she remembered. \u201cIf I want certain opportunities, I have to be banging down their door and saying, \u2018Give this to me.\u2019 Hopefully nicely!\u201d The same advice applies for negotiating pay, Wong explains. \u201cYou want to focus on the value that the other partner is getting,\u201d she said. It\u2019s crucial to quantify the value you represent (\u201cI brought in $10,000 of new business last year, and that\u2019s why I think my rate should be X amount this time\u201d), and Wong also suggests getting ahead of that conversation by proactively seeking feedback. \u201cThree months before you decide to ask for a raise, ask, \u2018Is there anything you think I could be doing differently? What am I doing well?\u2019\u201d she recommended. \u201cGet them to give you a really concrete answer. Work on those things for three months, and then go in and ask for the raise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t sweat the small stuff\u2014but do make time for it.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kerr is a firm believer in the power of routine. Her top takeaway? \u201cMake your bed every day,\u201d she insisted. \u201cAt least try it for 30 days and see how it feels. You don\u2019t have to make it perfectly\u2014it doesn\u2019t have to have hospital corners. But when you do it every day, it\u2019s already something that you\u2019ve accomplished.\u201d For Wong, intention is a daily tone-setter. \u201cBefore you get started on all of your tasks, ask yourself, \u2018What is the one thing I could do today that\u2019s going to make me feel good about this day?\u2019\u201d she advised. Writing those intentions down, Doll adds, benefits you in the present and the future. \u201cHave a to-do list, put everything on it, and cross that sh*t off!\u201d she said. \u201cYou will feel so good about it\u2014even if it\u2019s \u2018I did my laundry, or I finally filed that memo.\u2019\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
