Many people work long hours, leaving very little time for leisure activities. Does this situation have more advantages or disadvantages?

Some people think that it is better to
work
long hours to earn more money and ignore that they do not have enough time to enjoy their
life
. I consider

as it makes our

First

Moreover
,
this
helps us in achieving our professional goals. Everyone has a dream to achieve something in
life
and these dreams can be fulfilled only if you do hard
work
to achieve them. According to me, even though working
day
and night may give us money, there

which

creates on our health, which cannot be ignored.
On the other hand
, working more and ignoring leisure activities have several disadvantages.
Firstly
, hard
work
without any enjoyment makes our
life
stressful. Due to less time spent on recreational activities, our level of stress increases and cause us several mental illnesses.
For example
, as per

of obesity and severe diseases.
Finally
, it can affect our family relationships. Working
day
and night can harm our relationships with friends and family seriously.
Therefore
, I believe that too much
work
and lack of enjoyment can seriously impact our physique and bring more worry in our
life
To conclude,
