Work life balance is a major challenge for people under pressure to do more. It's easy to ignore the need for better work life balance until stress levels lead to negative impacts on colleagues, friends, family, your health and your job performance.
High stress levels means low tolerance for even the slightest irritation. This means having a short fuse and losing your temper too easily.
How satisfying is your job? When not excited by our job we can blame working conditions when, in fact, it is our enthusiasm for the job itself or appreciation from others that is missing. For example, we happily work hard at a hobby even at considerable discomfort because it is satisfying, but we wouldn't tolerate the same level of inconvenience in a boring or less rewarding job. Doubtless you could well be working too much anyway.
The potential problem with saying you want a better work-life balance is that it is global, nebulous. Identifying what you really want by asking yourself some of the above questions might help you focus on the specific factors behind your dissatisfaction. Vague issues generally lead to nebulous or global solutions, like dropping out to be an artist, where a more specific issue lends itself to a more precise, perhaps less radical, solution.
