is your professional life spoiling your personal life?

It's really a challenge to balance everything smoothly, specially when one's professional life demands more time and energy, thus sacrificing personal/social life. The work-life balance becomes so much of a struggle and can go on and on when one prioritizes WORK. But it's a matter of priority so they say; so i think if one is married, both the husband and wife should agree what should be there priority in life and support that goal for some time. If both of them needs to work to reach a goal, then that would mean to sacrifice the quality time for each other. They have have to make much of the time that is left for the both of them. How much little time left, if it is WELL SPENT is much better than having much time together but spent without much thought and care.

No, but that's because I'm a writer and as long as you meet the deadline we can work whenever we want. I don't have a boss breathing down my neck if I show up at the office at 9:07am instead of 9am. As long as I turn in my pieces on time, they're happy. If I had a nine to five job, I think it would worse.

I feel it some times. Have to give serious thought about it.

Absolutly! Im still in school and am not getting married anytime soon but I do know what your talking about. I have so much studying and so many extracurriculars that I baely have time for me, friends and life on top of a boyfriend. I find ways to sweeze everything in and ake time eventually but its stressful and I dont think that it should be this way. I also think that it's impossible to completely separate parts of your life such as professional and personal because they are all a part of you.
