EBM Model

The problem I have chosen to explore is poor work/life balance. I often feel like I am not doing enough at work and not spending enough time with my family. I would like to find a way to better balance my time, so I can feel more productive at work and have more time for my family (Mrr, 2010).

Identify the evidence: The evidence that I have to support this problem is that I often feel overwhelmed and stressed. I find that I am always thinking about work, even when I am at home with my family. I also feel like I cannot enjoy my time off from work.

Define the problem: The problem is that I am not able to balance my time between work and my family. I often feel like I am not doing enough at work and not spending enough time with my family.

Generate possible solutions

Some possible solutions to this problem are to create a schedule for myself, set limits on how much work I will do outside of work hours, and make sure that I take time for myself each day.

Select the best solution

The best solution for me would be to create a schedule for myself. This way, I can ensure that I am spending enough time at work and also taking time for my family. I can also use this schedule to ensure I take time for myself daily.

Implement the solution

I will implement this solution by creating a schedule. I will ensure that I am spending enough time at work and also taking time for my family and myself.

Part 2

The FIORD model could be helpful in making decisions about solving my problem because it will help me identify the evidence, I need to support my problem. It will also help me to generate possible solutions to my problem. Finally, it will help me to select the best solution for me.
