Work-Life Balance...

I spent most of my corporate life trying (and failing) to achieve work-life balance - work stresses seeped into my non-work time, and I spent most of my work time wishing I was doing my non-work stuff.

In the end I decided that work-life balance was something that Unicorns and the Loch Ness Monster chatted about on their holidays to Atlantis.

And now, 5 years and 4 days into my non-corporate life I still don’t think that there is any such thing as work life balance - there is just ‘Life’, and anything, work or non-work, that throws life out of balance is to be stopped, changed, avoided or improved, because life is too short to spend too much of it out of balance….
