[quote=Anonymous]And to add on to that, having the flexible job may mean that you do not rise to the highest levels in your field, nor do you win all the accolades. Knowing that, perhaps you could stop pulling all the all nighters in grad school/law school, and not actually have to be the best at everything. Aim for the high end of the middle of the pack. And in order to get the middling flexible job, you probably don't need to go to all the conferences, do all the presentations, do all the extra service work in your profession. Aim to be "good enough" and to save your energy for yourself and your family. Stop reading all that productivity porn! All that nonsense about 'how much you could get done if you woke up at 4 AM every morning." once you have kids you'll be doing that soon enough.[/quote]
