Weekends with Archie

Work-Life Balance

August 16, 2007

[Excerpt from my 3rd Monthly Progress Report]

It was one Wednesday night when I first played badminton with my rowmates.  I know it was a weekday night already but since I like playing the game and it has been a while since I last played it, I joined.  The next day, I feel more energetic and more determined to work.

One Friday night, I made a plan what to do for the weekend.  The next two days, I decided to clean our beloved adobe, go out for a dinner party with other friends and had a good time.  When I woke up the following Monday morning, I saw myself looking more forward to work.

So I realized that having a work life balance drives you more to work. It allows you to recharge your energy and make the most out of life, which is definitely bigger than work life.  For me, having a work life balance does not mean deviating from work. I think it is complementary to work.  I’m looking forward to plan for a regular activity which can provide a work-life balance and it turn drive me more to work.
