Joel Allison on Habits and Work-Life Balance

In many of the interviews we’ve featured, we’ve discussed habits and life balance and how these healthcare executives are able to juggle everything thrown at them. Today, we get to hear Joel Allison’s perspective on this topic. Allison has had a remarkable career and will soon be retiring from his CEO position at Baylor Scott & White Health.

In the first segment, Allison provides 8 habits he has formed that help get him through the day effectively:

  1. Pray.
  2. Read the scripture.
  3. Exercise.
  4. Eat Breakfast.
  5. Enjoy hard work.
  6. Prepare for your day.
  7. Stay current in your field.
  8. Never stop learning.

Dan Nielsen comments that we are all slaves to our habits so these choices define who we become.

In the second featured segment, Allison discusses life balance and how important setting priorities is to achieve this balance. Allison remarks that his priorities have to go in order: faith, family, and then work.

“It’s challenging and not easy, but the Lord blessed me with a wonderful wife and she has really been that rock who has kept me balanced.”
