[quote=Anonymous]OP, if you're working more hours because it makes you happy, but are so stressed that you're slacking off on the job, then something is wrong. The balance you need is to work enough hours that you can do your best when you are ON, and find some other pursuit for your OFF hours that might fill your time and give you satisfaction (hobby, volunteering). I'm sure the money from all that working is great, but if you aren't able to give your best when you're working, then you aren't really doing your job. I don't mean to sound harsh. I'm posting from experience. I used to work almost every working hour and was burning myself out. I learned that I didn't have good boundaries between work and life, and saw work as the only purpose of my life. It's been a harsh lesson, but I'm slowly learning to find other fulfilling things in my off time so that I'm able to do my best and earn my salary through my good work in my on time.[/quote]
