Is there a formula, an ideal? Has anyone calculated the optimal percent of time and energy that should be spent and focused outside of one\u2019s career? My first thoughts are that approaching work-life balance that way defeats the point, and in all honesty, aren\u2019t the activities we do to make ourselves satisfied with our lives unique to each one of us?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;\">The conversation about work-life balance always seems, to me, to focus on life activities that are more work \u2013 exercise, hobbies, social outings\u2026 albeit activities I have enjoyed and will continue to enjoy, but activities I have to schedule and plan and mull over before, during, and afterwards. I won\u2019t extoll the many virtues of exercise, the creative and energetic outlets hobbies are often billed as, or the benefit friendships have on a person, as many other resources on the web do a significantly better job than I can. I find immense joy in photographing wildlife on a hike or witnessing myself improve at a sport or in general fitness. I like letting my mind wander (into the territory of \u2018how did my experiment go wrong\u2019) while I create an abstract drawing or card for a loved one. Social outings\u2026 that one is a bit complicated for me, but I treasure the memories made with my family and friends. However each one of these things can add pressure to my workload, and while I\u2019m trying to experience a full and diverse life I often find myself worrying over my experimental plans for the next week, my next program deadline, and\/or whether I am properly positioning myself for the career I want. It\u2019s not exactly the work-life balance I\u2019ve dreamed about.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;\">On the positive side, it helps a lot that I am in love with my work in an embarrassing way. I will be mid-protocol and be struck by the fact that not only am I living my childhood dream, but I am even more fascinated by my field than I was one, five, or ten years ago. I know what hating your job is like, to the point of being physically sick over it. A day in lab that lasts ten or twelve hours is more often invigorating than demoralizing, motivating me to come in even earlier the next day; whereas in some previous jobs I felt trapped by every new responsibility. I feel like I might have mentioned this all before, but I can\u2019t help but tell people I made the right decision about what I want to do with my life (so far).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt; text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" title=\"Default Title Text\" src=\"http:\/\/insights.cactusglobal.com\/sites\/default\/files\/The%20life-changing%20magic%20of%20work-life%20balance%20image%201.jpg\" alt=\"Default Alt text\" data-file_info=\"%7B%22fid%22:%228027%22,%22view_mode%22:%22default%22,%22fields%22:%7B%22format%22:%22default%22,%22field_file_image_alt_text%5Bund%5D%5B0%5D%5Bvalue%5D%22:%22Default%20Alt%20text%22,%22field_file_image_title_text%5Bund%5D%5B0%5D%5Bvalue%5D%22:%22Default%20Title%20Text%22,%22field_image_tags%5Bund%5D%5Btextfield%5D%22:%22%22,%22field_image_tags%5Bund%5D%5Bvalue_field%5D%22:%22%5C%22%5C%22%5C%22%5C%22%22%7D,%22type%22:%22media%22%7D\" \/><br \/>\n<em><strong>One of the leftover mugs from a recent crafting adventure.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;\">Loving my job or not, I still need to find time to explicitly exist in the given moment. To those who have known me throughout my life, maybe it\u2019s hard to imagine that I am not laidback, ready to go whichever way life takes me. Then again, maybe it\u2019s not \u2013 I grew up in a family of Type A personalities. My spouse is constantly\u2026 lovingly?\u2026 reminding to me \u201crelax,\u201d and in doing so, only making me more stressed that I am not relaxed and reminding me that I am somehow so bad at doing something that is supposed to be natural instinct. A valuable lesson my PhD is teaching me, however, is to make space for that time to \u201crelax.\u201d Granted, I will probably fill it with chores or a run or dithering about all the things I\u2019m not doing. If I\u2019m lucky, however, my step-daughter will ask to do a craft and I will pull out multiple mugs so she has a good model. Maybe my spouse will suggest we watch a movie I\u2019ve been wanting to see in the middle of the afternoon. If my cat is lucky, it will catch me at the right time with a forlorn look and adamant \u201cmeow\u201d for attention, pets, and scratching. For twenty minutes or an hour or two, my life will only exist as the moment I am in.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0in 0in 10pt;\"><span style=\"font-size: 11pt;\"><span style=\"line-height: 115%;\"><span style=\"font-family: Calibri,sans-serif;\">Upon a little reflection, I have work-life balance. It takes a bit of work to make it that way, and sometimes in the middle of all the work that is life, I wonder if there is a returns department for this whole existence thing. But the tiny, serendipitous, spontaneous moments of joy I find in all the things I do, brings me all the balance I need.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><i>Lauren Bonefont (<\/i><a style=\"color: blue; text-decoration: underline;\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/LBMicro\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><i>@LBMicro<\/i><\/a><i>) is a second year PhD student at an institution in Florida.
