"I wish I hadn't worked so hard", is the Number 2 regrets of the dying as mentioned in the book "The Top Five Regrets Of The Dying " by Bronnie Ware. Work is part of living but compulsively working for hard and long hours to the extent of neglecting your family or love ones, friends, self and other important pursuits in life has its own disadvantages. There is more to Life than work.

In life we often get confused about work and love. We want to spend time with loved ones but at the same time we have thoughts about work because money is too important for living.

@Johnnash1610 Right. That's why we need a sense of balance between work and family.

There is more to life than working but you have to work to make a living.

I agree, we have to find time for family friends, etc after work. Keep on working and think about work only, is not good at all.
