My Life Strategy has Always Been to Cope with Stress by Working Hard

But now I realize that you can definitely over do hard work and while overworking might provide you with more money and success it can also halt some positive things by taking up too much of your time or providing an opportunity to avoid things.
Is there anything in your life that you find to be both a positive and a negative or that you wish you could learn to balance out better?

@Ferric67 take my advice try to disconnect a little bit more from work little by little I'm trying.

@REMsleep I've made a conscious decision to do just that once I achieve my current goal. I will cut back my hours and join a couple of yoga studios....it's what I had been doing pre-pandemic. Working less hours and finish my evenings at yoga.
