Why is work-life balance impossible at the start of a career?
Choose which way to tip early on
At the start of a career, work-life balance is impossible. If you want a great career, you choose which side your balance tips. Once you are at a certain point, you have more leverage and power to negotiate.
If you want a great career, you choose which way your balance will tip: do you want work, or life? Do you want life in your work or work in your life?
