I've been thinking a lot lately about how to make work-life balance work!
In these fast-moving, social media-driven times there is too much pressure and noise. We all deserve happiness and health but instead we are often too tired to do much work, and too jaded and exhausted to be interested in anything outside of work. These days I'm often too tired after work to study. I know that seems like an excuse but it’s true. It's terrible. I see lots of people around me that go through life standing at the excuse counter too.
When I was a child, I thought naively how amazing it would be to do what we want to do after we grew up. But now I’ve found it was only a dream --- the stark reality is all we really do is work to put food on the table.
This is what separates the wealthy from the rest of us common folk. A solid economic base gives one the freedom to do the things one wants to do.
No matter however rich you may be, I don't envy you if you spend all your time working, because you will have no opportunity to enjoy the fruits of your labor. That doesn’t seem like living the dream life to me. When faced with a mountain of work, we need to take the time to be mindful and seek to harmonize work and life appropriately.
