Workload overwhelm is a state of chronic stress experienced when an individual is assigned a volume of tasks exceeding their capacity to complete them within a reasonable timeframe. This condition is often characterized by a sense of being perpetually behind, difficulty prioritizing, and a decline in overall performance. Workload overwhelm can manifest in various forms, including excessive project loads, unrealistic deadlines, and insufficient resources. It is a prevalent issue in contemporary organizations, often stemming from poor resource allocation, ineffective project management, or unrealistic expectations. The consequences of workload overwhelm can be detrimental to both individuals and organizations, leading to burnout, decreased job satisfaction, reduced productivity, and increased turnover. Effective management strategies are essential to mitigate the negative impacts of workload overwhelm and foster a healthy work environment.

Key factors contributing to workload overwhelm include:

Inefficient task allocation: Unbalanced distribution of tasks among team members.

Poor time management: Ineffective prioritization and time allocation.

Lack of resources: Insufficient personnel, budget, or technology to support workload.

Unrealistic expectations: Demanding excessive output without considering capacity.

Organizational culture: Emphasis on overwork and presenteeism.

Addressing workload overwhelm requires a multifaceted approach involving individuals, teams, and organizations. Implementing time management techniques, effective communication, and clear expectations are essential steps. Organizations should prioritize workload management through proper resource allocation, realistic goal setting, and a focus on work-life balance. By recognizing the signs of workload overwhelm and taking proactive measures, individuals and organizations can mitigate its negative consequences and create a more sustainable work environment.

一天，小王的女朋友小平说她想去中国城吃中国饭。小王就开车带小平去中国城。可是，小王从来没去过中国城，他不知道去中国城怎么走，所以小平拿了一张地图告诉小王怎么走。过了二十分钟，他们到了一个地方，在这个地方他们考到了很多中国字，他们想这个地方就是中国城。他们停车问一个人，“你知道中国饭店在哪儿吗？” 那个人说：”这里是小东京，没有中国饭店。“这个时候，他们才知道他们走错了地方，这里不是中国城。小平非常不高兴，因为她只想吃中国菜，不想吃日本菜。

I sitdown with Carl Honoré is a bestselling author, broadcaster and two-time TED speaker. He is also the voice of the Slow Movement. 

After working with street children in Brazil, Carl covered Europe and South America for the Economist, Observer, Miami Herald, Houston Chronicle, National Post (Canada), Time and other publications. 

His first book, In Praise of Slow, chronicles the global trend toward putting on the brakes in everything from work to food to parenting. The Financial Times said it is “to the Slow Movement what Das Kapital is to communism”.

Carl’s second book, Under Pressure explores how to raise and educate children in a fast world and was hailed by Time as a “gospel of the Slow Parenting movement”.

Carl’s third book, The Slow Fix, explores how to tackle complex problems in every walk of life, from health and relationships to business and politics, without falling for superficial, short-term quick fixes.

His fourth book, Bolder: How To Age Better And Feel Better About Ageing, is a spirited manifesto against ageism.

Carl recently published his first children’s book, It’s The Journey Not the Destination
Published in 36 languages, Carl has landed on bestseller lists in many countries. 

In Praise of Slow was a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week and the inaugural choice for the Huffington Post Book Club. It also featured in a British TV sitcom, Argentina’s version of Big Brother and a TV commercial for the Motorola tablet. 

Under Pressure was shortlisted for the Writers’ Trust Award, the top prize for non-fiction in Canada. 

Bolder was also a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week as well as a Reader’s Digest (UK) Book of the Month.

Carl featured in a series for BBC Radio 4 called The Slow Coach in which he helped frazzled, over-scheduled people slow down. He also presented a television show called Frantic Family Rescue on Australia’s ABC 1.

Carl lives in London. While researching his first book on slowness he was slapped with a speeding ticket.

“I’d really like to participate in a drawing contest, which is organised by my university every year, and the first three prize winners actually go forward to a national drawing contest. I wasn’t so into drawing over the years, but I found that during all the covid lockdowns that it was a great way to pass the time, and really helped me from going stir crazy stuck at home every day during the numerous lockdowns we had.

 

I recently showed some of my friends a few of my sketches, which are mostly landscapes, and they were very complimentary, and suggested that I enter a competition, which gave me a boost of confidence. 

I imagine that the  competition would be pretty stiff for this contest, but i feel confident that i’ve really developed my skills enough over the past year or so, and with my friends and families encouragement have been able to get the nerve up to show off my drawing skills in public.

 

I guess the main reason i’d like to take part in this contest is that i’ve really grown to love drawing, and feel it would actually be a lot of fun to enter, as well as giving me a new challenge which i think i’m now ready for. Another reason is of course the chance of winning a nice prize, and maybe even having my drawing going forward to the national contest, which would really be amazing.

 

Thank you…. “

こんばんは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。


今日はあいづちについて話します！
レッスンの中で出てきたトピックです。

ぼくも英語のあいづちをマスターしたいという気持ちがあります。それで今日は日本語のあいづちをいくつか紹介しますね！


あいづちにはいくつかパターンがあります。

 ① 聞いているとき 　はい
　そうですか
　うんうん
　へー
　なるほど
　それはおもしろいですね
　
　  ②共感するとき 　そうですね
　そう思います
　わかります
　そうですよね
　いいですね
　  ③ おどろいたとき 　本当ですか！
　それはすごいですね！
　そうなんですね！
　すごい！
　そうなんですか！
　えー！ 
 ④ 話をひろげるとき
　それでどうなったんですか 　それからどうなったんですか
　つづきを教えてください　
  ⑤ 確認するとき 　それは～ということですね
　それはこういうことですか？
　つまり〜ということですか？ 
 ⑥ 感謝の気持ちを伝えるとき 　ありがとうございました
　とても感謝しています 

などがあります。

まだまだあると思いますが、今回はここまでにしますね。 日本ではあいづちをすると、相手の話をちゃんと聞いてますよ、というサインになります。

海外ではあいづちをしすぎると良くない、ということも聞きます。でも、日本語を話す時は、あいづちを使うといい会話になると思います。

関西弁は本当にあいづちをたくさん使います。
うんうん、ほんで？
で、それからどないしたん？
そんなアホな！
マジで！

などなど、本当にたくさんあります。

ぜひ練習してみてください！

僕とのオンラインレッスンでは、僕のリアルなあいづちをたくさん聞くことができます。興味がある人はぜひお話しましょう！

お待ちしていますね！


ということで、今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！

ではまた！
