Interesting. This is always a conversation in my house. I love to work. I am 80 hr a week person because I enjoy it. Though one day I looked up, my niece was 6. Where did that time go? Last thing I saw was that she was 3. Now that I have a child of my own, I really do not want that to happen. The issue arises due to the fact I love both. Of course my son more but when I am working, I am invested in my work, unaware of time and distraction. There for the debate arises. How to balance. Mixed with a demand to balance. I think the debate of the two really arrives for this situation.

People that do not enjoy their work have no need to balance because they punch the clock and go home. They prefer home and do not struggle with enjoying both so leaving is easy, they are aware of the time because they are counting down the seconds. Which makes the conversation about the people that love both.

I have developed a method to balance better. I have a people that keeps me accountable my boss at work to insure I work enough and get the job done successfully. My husband and mother constantly reminding me of the time and scheduling items I cant miss, priorities home time with demanding activities like at work. Lol I have to be aware of the balance because absorbing into either is something I can do each second. Balance has to be a priority in someones life that love more than just work because it is easy to over indulge in the things you love like Nutella.
