In fact,
we would even vote to retire the term “work-life balance” and replace it with “worklife choices.” The problem is that “work-life balance” suggests there is one right ratio for how much time you spend working and not working, and with that we disagree. Sure, there’s a lot of politically correct advocacy for a kind of perfect equilibrium and it may very well be that many people wanting a 50:50 split between work and life. But some people love work so much and find it so gratifying that they want to live a different equation, say, something like 70:30.

He thinks his life is perfectly balanced. Balance, we’re saying, is a personal choice based on what feels right to you, given what you want from life, both personally and professionally. With that choice, comes consequences.
