MSNBC reports on how Americans are increasingly imposing 70+ hour work weeks on themselves to stay competitive at the workplace. This is happening cross-industry which matches my anecdotal experience. I have friends in finance, law and technology for whom working ridiculous hours is considered part of the accepted culture.
This is dumb. There’s no way anyone in an information processing job can be productive for that many hours a week for any significant stretch of time. Places that foster this type of behavior are actively encouraging burnout, especially from their most junior employees. After all, it’s those with the least outside experience who will be most eagerly try to sync up with such a company culture.
Yes, there will always be crunch time. And when you find yourself in that zone of getting things done, it’s worth riding the wave regardless of the hour. But it’s not sustainable for weeks at a time. And in the long run, companies that don’t make time-off a guilt-free part of the culture will cripple themselves.

Find out what would truly make you happy.

We really do not know for sure what would make us happy. Fulfilling your life’s purpose would definitely make you happy and leave you feeling satisfied. I love this quote by Patanjali, “When you are inspired by some great purpose,some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bonds; your mind transcends limitations, your consciousness expands in every direction, and you find yourself in a new ,great and wonderful world. Dormant forces, faculties and talents become alive and you discover yourself to be a greater person by far than you ever dreamed yourself to be.”
