Peter’s Answer

I suggest reading "How Will You Measure Your Life?" by the brilliant Clayton Christensen.

Start by reflecting on what you truly want from life. Once you have a clear understanding of that, you’ll begin to see your job as one of the tools that helps you "be" where you want to be (I say "be" rather than "get" because life is about the journey, not the destination).

I’m grateful for my job because my colleagues are fantastic, it’s intellectually challenging, and it empowers me to live the life I desire. This means I’m happily willing to dedicate a significant portion of my time to my employer.

Silviu’s Answer

Work-life balance has a unique meaning for each of us. The first step is understanding what this means to you. Is it an 8-hour, 6-hour, or 4-hour job? Is it freelance work or a permanent position? There are many options in the job market, so it's essential to discover what's best for you. You might not know right away; evaluating your options alone won't be enough. I believe that experiencing one or more job setups is necessary to achieve a balanced life between work and personal life.
