Work and work it out

Today I feel like writing in my blog but i am so mentally drained from my work that I can hardly think coherently. I'm hardly up for anything after work these days and this is not healthy. I have to literally drag my ass to the gym five days a week, a new programme I just started on. Last week, i was determined. This week, the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.

As much as I try, I will miss out a day or two. And I feel so bad after missing a workout. Why should I put out so much at work and sacrifice my lifestyle? Doing well in my work is important, taking care of myself is important too. Something's got to give of course. Do I work less, think less and feel good enough for a work out after work, OR put in 200% at work and feel so worn out that I feel incapacitated for anything? That's the million dollar question.

Who's the idiot that invented the term "work-life balance"? It doesn't exist.

I am convincing myself more and more that I am an idiot doing this to myself. Rationally speaking, the job takes alot out of me, and the pay is so so. It is capitalism at it's finest. More and more, $$$ is taking priority over job satisfaction. Increasingly, I believe that money can buy happiness.

Yes i do. People say all the time that money can't buy happiness. Don't believe them, because more often than not, these group of people do not have money.
