[quote=Anonymous]I don't think there's more you can outsource. Can you cut out the work from 8-9:30 pm or leave later in the morning for work but come home at the same time? Why do you have to work this much? Do you enjoy it? I know these decisions are challenging. Right now I'm working long hours on something I'm incredibly passionate about, but I'm not commuting and my kids are elementary aged so can entertain themselves better than a baby could. It's a sacrifice to not have as much time with them and I'm not willing to do this long-term. When my kids were little, I didn't work more than 8.5 hours per day and it was still very hard with the commute and being out of the house for 11-12 hours per day. I really recommend limiting your work hours somehow. Maybe you're working that much and doing an A+ job, but it might be worth it to work 2 hours less per day and do an A- job so you can sleep and spend time with your family.[/quote]
