Burning the Candle From Both Ends: Are You Living to Work?

It can be so easy to find yourself going through the motions:  going to work, coming home, watching TV for a few hours (some of us are checking our work email while we do it), and then going to bed.  Rinse and repeat, day after day, just on autopilot.  It can be so easy to take the work with you, to stress about all of the tasks you need to get done.  Your needs matter!  If you need to take time off, do so.  If you need to attend to your needs, I invite you not to feel guilty for taking care of yourself.  And if you see that things, no matter how many times you try and speak up, aren’t changing, then it’s time to try and look for something else.
