In life and in other areas balance is a very important consideration. If you work continuously and never take time off to enjoy the sunshine or smell the flowers then you may be very successful but at the cost of true happiness. On the other hand if you never work then you will not be able to maintain the status that you desire or take care of your family and monthly expenses. Balance the need for work with quality time, either with friends or family, so that your life is as full and rich as possible.
Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.
