When life is busy, we are striving to keep all the balls in the air.

A common way to create efficiency is to manage “life” from your work computer.

There is ease and comfort in having everything in one place.

Yet, we need to push away from this.

Work is work.

Personal information is personal.

Keep them separate.

When your work computer is owned by the company you work for, you have no control.

No ownership of the information.

Including your personal files – photos, phone numbers, passwords, career history, etc.

You run the risk of losing all your information in an instant.

This applies to your phone as well.

Gone.

Instantly.

MeEO™ Tip

Keep information separate.

While it’s a bit inefficient to carry two phones and coordinate two laptops, it’s important.

Consider the second phone & laptop to be part of your career insurance plan.

If we are caught in a wave of layoffs, we have one less area of stress and panic.

This second computer can be a source of organized information.
