Maintaining a balance between work and personal life is essential for an individual's well-being. Free time and rest are essential for:
•Recharge your energy: Physical and mental rest allows the individual to recover their energy and return to work with more energy and productivity.
•Cultivate hobbies and interests: Free time allows individuals to dedicate themselves to activities that bring them pleasure and satisfaction, contributing to their emotional well-being.
•Strengthen interpersonal relationships: Time dedicated to family and friends strengthens emotional bonds and contributes to a feeling of belonging and social support.
A Holistic Success Model

•Physical and mental health: Taking care of your physical and mental health is essential to have the energy and willingness to achieve your goals.
•Interpersonal relationships: Maintaining healthy relationships with family and friends contributes to your emotional well-being and happiness.
•Free time and hobbies: Dedicate time to activities that bring you pleasure and satisfaction, such as hobbies, travel and time with your family.
