So yaa, how do you like balance work-life-balance and interests. I’m considering a job or however to put it that is known for awful work-life-balance, but is also incredibly interesting, but I’m not sure if it’s worth it😩

Like I do want to get married and have a family and such at some point, but that is in no way guaranteed, especially not considering my circumstances, meanwhile focusing on career seems more safe I suppose😵‍💫

    I prioritize life way more than work. I don’t actually care that much about my career. I just want a job that can pay my mortgage, I don’t give a shit about advancing or ladder climbing.

    That being said, everyone is different and has different needs and priorities. Although one thing that is the same for everyone is the major benefits to some sort of balance.

      I definitely agree. I think I tend to overfill my schedule as then I won’t have any time left to ruminate about the bad parts of my life, and I like being busy as I’m way more productive that way. I generally could see myself happy with a standard cliche family life with a husband and kids, but I don’t know if that will ever be achievable for me considering my circumstances sadly.
