I make to-do lists for both work and personal tasks. I try to find tiny blocks of time in my personal time to get specific tasks done. For example, if I have 15m between finishing work and leaving for class, I have enough time to wash the few dishes from lunch. I'll also take mini breaks from work to stretch, and while doing so complete tiny personal tasks, like loading the laundry machine or answering texts.

Prioritization and setting boundaries. That's it!
What really helped me was setting specific work hours and learning how to say "no" to non-essential tasks.

I maintain this balance thanks to the Tools.
Thanks to the tools that I organize my personal and business life, I can see how much time I spend on which area. I'm just making up the missing part.

To-do lists moslty. And several planned alarms to drag me out of my routine and focus on main goals.
Establish open and honest communication with those in both personal and professional relationships by actively listening, showing empathy, respect, staying connected through technology, and promptly addressing any conflicts that may arise.
I feel both of them go hand in hand. If the culture is flexible enough to give you time to cover your personal responsibilities, you would give back to the place by putting in enough time to get your work done.
We should make a list of all our works and then focus on that list only. In the beginning it is difficult to balance both the things but gradually we get used to it.!!
Setting realistic boundaries between work and personal responsibilities is a must. If the line between the two is not clearly defined, then you do not have sufficient clarity over the two to even attempt to strike a balance.
as a married working mom, tbh I can't. And I've given up even thinking about it. Just choose. Life isn't perfect.
Make work arrangements and plans during working hours and take personal responsibilities within personal time
I can't balance it, in fact, I've given up this thought...
I wan to create balance between work life and personal responsibilities but failed most of the time because of work load and much more... But trying hard to do. Wish me luck
I think balance is not about having to get all you want at the same time but more about setting priorities

I don't think there is a balance. People just change focus along with different stages of life.

I think making a to-do list is very helpful (even for the little things). With a to-do list, you can see what is on your plate easily and you can plan how to finish them. Then after finishing tasks, you can cross them out, this will give you psychological comfort
By learning to prioritise each aspect according to its requirement on a regular basis.
It may seem very absurd and subtle. But subtle things make life beautiful and worth living.
