How to Have a Social Life While Working Nights

0:01
when I want to make plans with people or
0:03
attend events I really probably need to
0:06
prioritize what those things are I can't
0:08
realistically go to them all So what
0:11
events are most important to me what
0:13
community involvement is most important
0:14
to me what people do I really want to
0:17
make sure I can see this week or this
0:19
month and how can I make that happen
0:21
with my schedule i might have to
0:22
compromise on some things I might have
0:24
to adjust some things Or I can plan it
0:27
around times when I'm already available
0:30
This kind of goes along with number two
0:32
Make plans and stick to them Again not
0:35
totally new if you've been following
0:36
along in this course Um but prioritizing
0:41
making plans building routines and
0:43
trying to keep them when you can that
0:45
will build consistency and connection in
0:47
your
0:48
relationships Again staying connected
0:50
and finding ways to do that just like
0:52
you would with a long-term partner or
0:55
family member how do you get to stay
0:57
connected with your friends and a lot of
0:59
those ways can overlap Maybe we're
1:01
sending each other things throughout the
1:02
day Maybe we write emails to each other
1:04
and catch up when we can Maybe we send
1:07
Tik Toks to each other Um but what are
1:09
the ways you can stay
1:11
connected and lastly same thing making
1:14
the time You might never find the time
1:17
to go to brunch with your friend or to
1:20
schedule tattoos Um but whatever you
1:24
want to do and decide to do you might
1:26
have to find a way to make the time The
1:28
time isn't going to just appear Um so
1:31
make the time for your friends and your
1:33
social life and for you just as you
1:35
would for someone else in your family
1:38
relationship whatever
