Hey There,

Working too much can become very harmful – Like every other addiction. We could be tempted to drift into working till we become workaholics simply because society recognizes and praises hard workers, those who go the extra mile. The ones who come to work early and close 3 hours after the official closing time. However, you could be a smart worker rather than putting so much pressure and strain on yourself by being a workaholic.

Often times, we do not realize that we have become workaholics, up until the habit becomes so deep and we start suffering in other aspects of our lives such as our health and relationships.

So how do we solve this problem before it becomes the end of us? First and foremost, recognize the problem. This is the first and most important step.

Wrike has created a simple 10-question quiz to evaluate just how much of a work addict you are. Take a few minutes to complete the quiz. Then, if the results divulge this shocking revelation that you are a workaholic (actually, not so shocking); take the next few minutes to schedule a vacation or, at the very least, a day off. Then find a way to adjust your schedule to accommodate other important things and people. You should also learn to take a break when you are meant to and when you body tells you it is time to do so.

Yours Sincerely,
