Nowadays, many
work
long hours, leaving them little time
for leisure activities.
There are some advantages in this
situation, but personally I feel there are more disadvantages. The advantages include the possibility of earning more money, if the employer pays overtime for extra hours worked. This
can be a real bonus if someone is saving with a particular goal in mind: a holiday, for example
, or saving to buy a house or flat. Another advantage might be that more time
spent at work
enables a more thorough knowledge and understanding of the job. Some professions such
as law and accountancy require familiarity with a wide range of rules and requirements and these cannot all be learned through study; they have to be learned on the job. For younger people there is also
the sheer stimulus of being involved in something they enjoy, so that they do not object to, or count, the hours they spend at work
.
Unfortunately, if people do not have enough time
to relax, there are quite major risks associated with this
. Health often suffers, either physically or mentally, and sometimes both. Taking time
out for physical leisure activities has positive effects on health through the release of chemicals that make us feel better both physically and mentally. Other leisure activities may involve spending time
with a group of people,

and thus
encouraging supportive social networks.
Friendships can also
be weakened because of not making enough time
to stay in touch, but using only a little of your free time
to have a meal or go to the cinema with someone helps to maintain that friendship. Listening to your friend’s problems, or talking through your own, reinforces your relationship with them, as well as allowing you to switch off mentally from the things that have been happening at work
. This
‘distancing’ from work
helps you to get things back into perspective and can sometimes help you to find solutions to matters that have been bothering you.
