Out of the box thinking

Work/life balance.

Hahahahahaha!

*Sigh...*

Work/life balance to a person like me is about the moderation of work hours and personal hours.

You know, finding the sweet spot that strikes a harmony between the two.

When work/life balance is disturbed for a long period of time, as in the overwork direction, people like me get fed up, and eventually burned out.

Perception differs, a workaholic's work/life balance will be very different to mine.

And nope, I don't envy them one bit. Slacker extraordinaire for the win! =P

Regardless of workaholic or slacker though, we need two or more things to perform an act of balancing. If there's only one thing, there is no need to balance.

So to resolve work/life balance issue, either overwork, or over-life (huh?), the complete removal of one is technically a plausible solution.

You know, if there is only work and nothing else, then there is only one thing and thus does not require balancing!

For workaholics who think they have too much time for life and too little time for work, just remove the life part out of the equation and ta-da! Only work in the equation, hence no work/life balance issue.

How you remove the life out of the equation is up to your interpretation, of course.

Being dead is a total removal of life from the equation and work/life balance is not an issue for a dead person. See, proven!
