I was reading an interview earlier today that got me thinking about the Idea of a Work-Life Balance.

As the title of the article states, Jim Rowley (CEO of Crunch Fitness), says a Work-Life Balance is, “for somebody who’s not fully committed.”

Now, I was fully expecting to read an interview that Reeked of “Hustle Culture”, which is a movement I do NOT agree with.

Of course, you must work hard to Succeed, but “Hustle Culture” promotes Extreme Burnout, which is NOT a Healthy way to live.

It’s a Toxic Belief System that targets lower-income employees and destroys people over time, honestly not any better than the Toxic Workplace that many of those individuals are trying to escape…

Perhaps it’s worse actually because “Hustle Culture” makes everything “Your” Fault at the end — If you Fail, it’s because “You” didn’t “Hustle” enough, and didn’t push yourself into enough “Burnout” to “Succeed”.

No accounting for “How” you do your work, or how your Psychophysiology plays into your Success.
