You wonder if it is truly possible to enjoy a life where you can ‘Play Longer.’ You wonder if the rat race our society seems to be in is all that there is, and would love to find another way to enjoy life with your family and friends. Tara Ross, Work Smarter, Play Longer

There are many things regarding work that keep us awake at night.

These can include one or more of the following:

· Poor Project Management

· Poor leadership

· Not meeting your goals

· Not being respected or liked

But, perhaps one of the biggest reasons for losing sleep is how your work life and personal life conflict with each other. This is something many people deal with, balance of life and dealing with the conundrum, “Do we live to work or do we work to live?”

Balanced living means considering all aspects of your life, including how to balance work with our personal needs.

We can get bogged down with work and family responsibilities from time to time. But, making time for ourselves is necessary so that we can keep up with all of our responsibilities.
