Ep.10: Work/Life BALANCE? Really?
from Daily D.O.S.E™ Hosted by Terry Hawkins
Often times there is shame around “working too much”… But what if you’re enjoying it? What if there wasn’t shame about the work you’re willing to put in? Work/Life balance can be different for all of us at different stages in our life. Our values and preferences change as we mature. Some of us do prefer to be “9-5” and keep strict boundaries around time; “I work to live. I don’t live to work”. That’s great, but let’s also respect those who want to contribute greater than what’s expected. There are many +’s for both sides. The key is how we feel - the second we stop enjoying our work (or its affect on our long term well being), it might be time to reflect and decide what will make us feel fulfilled. Let’s ditch the work/life balance terminology - what do you think?
