Do you work to live?
| back to top |
Posted 2 months ago Hi all, Do you work to live...or live to work? My family/friends call me a workaholic, but I think my 'strong work ethic' is what has made me so successful, and furthermore, happy. What's your story? |

| Posted 2 months ago I think the best workers are well-rounded professionals with full lives, in and out of the office. Also, pursuing hobbies you're passionate about can lead to a second career. |

| Posted 2 months ago I've been called a workaholic, too. I guess in my case, I do enjoy working so much that it's like a hobby. I have other things, like crochet. But I always end up coming back to the computer. There's a significant time difference between me and you, almost a day's worth, but here I am. 11.30pm my time. I took a month's holiday to Sweden, and was thinking of prospects whilst there! I even did a little bit of direct marketing and some writing. However, I also really enjoyed touring all over Stockholm and took more than 600 pictures. I attended a friend's wedding and visited museums and points of interest. So, I guess maybe I have that full life. I do feel as though my life is full. Most of my friends don't do what I do, and I never talk business with them. So, maybe I have balance, too. |
