Work Life Balance

I know I already wrote an article on this last month. But the phrase work/life or work life or work-life balance, which internationally is everywhere right now is driving me up the wall. It is a phrase that is making many workers feel unbalanced. Has anyone tried to balance two full time workloads? And at the same time keep them separate? By idolising this phrase and mantra people will continue to be unbalanced. Work is a part of life, and it should be one element of the whole life. It is something to be balanced inside of - as opposed to out side of - life. As Liv Tyler's character Corey Mason said in the Gen Y film Empire Records, 'there's 24 usable hours in every day' (IMDB). Precisely, there are only 24 usable hours in everyday. It's all a matter of maths.
