Comments on: Finding Work-Life Balance in the New Year http://www.careerlifeconnection.com/blog/2009/12/18/finding-work-life-balance-in-the-new-year/ The quest for flexibility in a rigid world Mon, 02 Aug 2010 14:19:42 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Jon Prial http://www.careerlifeconnection.com/blog/2009/12/18/finding-work-life-balance-in-the-new-year/#comment-1863 Jon Prial Tue, 22 Dec 2009 02:07:17 +0000 http://www.careerlifeconnection.com/blog/?p=1085#comment-1863 Although there are benefits to working at home, a commute isn't necessarily a horrible thing when it comes to work-life balance. For many years, I listened to my music and found it to be a great outlet and helped keep an important part of my life energized. I have recently shifted to audiobooks and I have begun to enjoy my commute even more. I am driving to work slower, getting better mileage and have even been a bit frustrated on some of the days that I needed to work from home because I needed to keep "reading" my book. Just one isolated point of view. The key in all work-life decisions is that it is very personal and individuals have to find what works for them and their companies.
