Some of you are familiar with the saying "all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." One can also make an argument against the opposite -- "all play and no work makes Jack a poor boy." Many people struggle with work-life balance. One can reason that all the money in the world is no good if you do not have the time to use it, and all the time in the world is no good if you do not have money to do anything. Let me repeat for emphasis: Do not get so caught up in work that you never take time to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Likewise, do not get so content in recreation that you never achieve your full potential. Seek balance and plan accordingly to find the right mix of work and play, as it is easy to get out of whack. Use your time wisely because once time it is gone, you can never get it back.
