This is my favorite perspective on work-life balance.

Everything is a choice. I’m not a victim, I have agency. I’ve chosen to work hard to improve life for myself and others.

But I won’t worship work. Work is meaningful and valuable, but it’s not what’s most important to me. https://twitter.com/dvassallo/status/1225270327929954304
Counterpoint? Or synthesis?

“Your work is holy.

The problem isn’t that we derive too much of our worth and value from work.

The problem is our jobs are becoming increasingly abstracted from work.

The unhappiest people in the world are mute creatives.” https://www.epsilontheory.com/in-praise-of-work/

Another great thread by my favorite philosopher of work, @p_millerd!

Which of the 9 “schools of work” are you in?

(Though as a lifelong Catholic, I’d add, there’s not just one homogeneous “Catholic work ethic”, but it’s a reasonable simplification.) https://twitter.com/p_millerd/status/1275772954589179907
