What is that - work and life balance? Is it possible in modern life? How to achieve it?
Recently, I found a video of a stand-up comic about work and life balance in Canada. He said this phenomenon had disappeared in Canada when Europeans arrived here.
Honestly, I do not know what this balance means. I would say when you are happy at work and outside of work, it is a balance. There is no standard type of balance which can apply to every person. For example, some people are more active during the day, some of them are active during the night, some of people would not like to be active at all etc.
In my experience, I have only work balance where there is no space for life. Sadly, I find it out only now but lucky for me I got it and I am going to fix it. And it is possible, first step is done - to realize that you need a life balance too. Let’s become happy with life, not only with work. It does not matter in what country you are living in!
To conclude, as long as you are happy, and, I would say people close to you are happy with you, that means you have the work and life balance.
