Some people think that work is the most important thing in people's life. Without the success of a career, life becomes meaningless. To what extent do you agree or disagree!.
It is often argued by many people that working is an important thing in their
life
. While others believe that life
is useless without a successful career, I completely disagree with this
statement since prioritizing work
would lead to severe health
issues.
There are two major points why dedicating life
as a worker does not play a significant role in the happiness of one's life
. Firstly
, when we are working for companies, it means that we have to be able to obey the rules and meet the company's work
ethic and standards. In other words
, if we do not finish the workload, taking longer hours is unbearably becoming an agreement or even worse being fired which leads to a high level of stress. Secondly
, working for a factory means that you sacrifice your weekdays for work
life
and only have two days of the weekend for leisure time which sometimes is taken by your family for get-togethers. Consequently
, you have little time for yourself to spend on activities you like.
Another prominent reason is the fact that there are many detrimental effects ,especially on health
due to prioritizing work
over any else in life
. Sedentary life
, for example
, is reported by the Indonesia Ministry of Health
as the key factor contributing to severe health
issues among workers because workers lack physical activity, thus
generating heat stroke. In addition
, balancing work
and life
is seemingly a great way to overcome health
problems. Therefore
, managing a healthy lifestyle by doing physical activities and not considering work
as a top priority in life
is a better way of life
.
In conclusion, if people pay too much attention to their careers, it would increase their stress level and lead to several health
problems. Hence
, balancing work
and personal life
is undeniably shaping a healthy and worthy life
